What Does Nasal And Lip Numbness After Taking Zyrtec Suggest?

I m having the same symptoms as another person. I just read the answer on this site. I also took 24-hour Zyrtec or a generic version of it about two hours ago, and I m having nasal and forehead and lip numbness that is similar to numbness from dental injected anesthetic.
