Snotcho is back to Nacho with Cetirizine
From UndisclosedComments about Cetirizine HClI purchased Cetirizine at my vet's recommendation for my kitty Nacho. A tiny dynamo of an ex-feral cat, who sometimes can't sleep well because of sniffles from allergies. Cetirizine doesn't make him drowsy, but playing all day with kittens does. I was very happy to see Cetirizine at less than half the price of my local pharmacy and delivered super fast.-
Tough work playing with kittens, but somebody has to!

Quick to deliver, easy to administer
From UndisclosedComments about Cetirizine HClThe package came very fast despite me only paying for standard shipping. The pills are wicked small, which makes giving them to my cat super easy. I can put a few treats down one at a time and in the middle sneak in one of the pills. She takes the medication with zero problems and it seems to be helping her a bit. I haven't noticed any side effects. Great purchase. -

Great prices to help care for your fur baby!
From UndisclosedComments about Cetirizine HClCetirizine has helped with our Maltipoo's allergies. It has seemed to help with year stains often common in white dogs of certain breeds.

Vetrx made it possible for us to do our best to help our baby. We highly recommend them.

Cetirizine is a human-labeled medication that may be used in an extra-label manner for pets, under the direction and guidance of a veterinarian. As a pet pharmacy, we only dispense this medication for use in animals. When used for dogs, cetirizine is dosed based on the dog's weight (mg/kg). Depending on your dog’s weight, more than one tablet may be needed to reach the appropriate dose. In humans, cetirizine is not dosed by weight. Please consult your veterinarian regarding any further questions or concerns regarding this medication in your dog.
