Licit D Tablet

Licit D Tablet is used to treat symptoms of the common cold, flu, and allergies, such as sneezing, runny nose, nasal and sinus congestion, stuffy nose, or watery eyes. The common cold is a respiratory illness that affects the nose and throat and is caused by viruses known as 'rhinoviruses'. The virus enters the body through the nose, mouth or eyes and spreads quickly through air droplets when a sick person sneezes, coughs or talks.

Licit D Tablet consists of two medicines: Levocetirizine (antihistamine) and Pseudoephedrine (decongestant). Levocetirizine belongs to the class of antihistamines or anti-allergic that work by blocking the action of histamine, a substance responsible for causing allergic reactions. It helps to provide relief from allergy symptoms such as sneezing, running nose, watery eyes, itching, swelling, and congestion or stiffness. On the other hand, Pseudoephedrine belongs to the class of decongestant drugs. Works by narrowing small blood vessels in your nose. This helps mucus and airflow more freely in the cavities in your nose (sinuses), helping you to breathe more easily. Altogether Licit D Tablet relieves the symptoms from common cold symptoms.
