Overview Cetfast L 2.5mg Syrup

Pediatric patients experiencing allergic symptoms such as those associated with hay fever, hives (urticaria), conjunctivitis (eye inflammation), and the common cold may be prescribed Cetfast L 2.5mg Syrup. This syrup alleviates symptoms like nasal discharge, sneezing, itchy eyes, and watery eyes.

Persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate medical consultation. Prior to commencing treatment, inform your doctor about any existing kidney disease or epilepsy; dosage adjustments may be necessary.
