How it Works

Cetsu 5mg Syrup belongs to a class of medicines called antihistamines. It blocks the natural chemical substance (histamine) produced in the body during an allergic state and subsides (lowers) your child’s immune system’s response to these conditions. This relieves the symptoms being faced by your child and also helps treat the allergic condition.
