Do not take XYZAL if you are allergic to XYZAL, cetirizine or ZYRTEC. Be sure to tell your doctor if you have kidney disease. Patients taking XYZAL should avoid operating machinery or driving a motor vehicle. Taking XYZAL with alcohol or sedatives should be avoided. Take XYZAL at bedtime. Do not increase the dose due to increased risk of sleepiness.
