Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
When I have a fever, can I take Cetirizine in the morning and then Paracetamol in the afternoon?
Please advise.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
You mentioned that you have a fever. You can use Paracetamol. You can take it up to three times a day and can stop if your temperature comes down.
Now, regarding Cetirizine, it is used for allergies, colds, and other conditions. If you are experiencing a flu-like fever, that is, a fever accompanied by a cold or itchy throat, then yes, you can use it in conjunction with Paracetamol. I suggest you take both medicines together.
You can use Levocetirizine, which avoids sleepiness. Hence, you can be focused on your work. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her, and take medicine with their consent.
Thank you and take care.
Regards.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
