Good to know
- Children's Zyrtec's front panel says "1 mg/mL" and its Drug Facts say "cetirizine HCl 5 mg" in each 5 mL — the same concentration written two ways.
- Store-brand children's cetirizine syrups are FDA-approved generics of Children's Zyrtec (their FDA listings are abbreviated new drug applications).
- Children's cetirizine also comes as 10 mg dissolving tablets (CVS, Walgreens and Walmart list store-brand versions) — a different form and dose, not in this group.
- Kirkland Signature Children's Aller-Tec is sold at Costco as a two-pack of 8 fl oz bottles.
