What Are The Affects Of Excessively Drinking While Taking Zyrtec Daily?

when i say excessive, i mean not just one or two drinks, but drinking a decent amount on the weekends…

Answer

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, drinking alcohol while taking Zyrtec can cause drowsiness, dizziness and/or increased risk for overdose.

You should talk to your pharmacist or other healthcare provider if you have questions about alcohol/drug interactions.
