Can Zyrtec-D Be Taken For Nasal Congestion?
Can I give my son zyrtec-D? He has severe congestion due to seasonal allergies his normal medication is not working. Him and I have the same symptoms, the only thing that works for me is the zyrtec-D. The package says 12 and older so I thought maybe cut one in half but I wanted to be sure
