Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Zyrcold cotains cetrizine and Alex cotains chloropheniramine maleate.
Both are antihistaminics and the action is almost same.
But I personally like alex junior.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
