Elderly patients with normal kidney function, dose adjustment is not required.
Patients with renal failure a dose of cetyrizin should be adjusted depending on the value of Cl creatinine.
Cl creatinine for men can be calculated based on the plasma concentration of creatinine according to the formula :
Cl creatinine, ml / min = ([140 − age, years] × body weight, kg): 72 × Cl creatinine plasma, mg / dl
Cl creatinine for women can be calculated by multiplying the value obtained by a coefficient of 0.85.
The dose correction is carried out taking into account the data of the table.
Table
| Renal failure | Cl creatinine, ml / min | Dosing mode, mg / day |
| Norma | ≥80 | 10 |
| Easy | 50–79 | 10 |
| Medium | 30–49 | 5 |
| Heavy | <30 | 5 mg per day |
| Terminal (patients in dialysis) | <10 | The drug is contraindicated |
Children with renal failure are individually adjusted for the dose of cetyricin in the caps for ingestion, taking into account Cl creatinine, age and body weight.
For adult patients, if there is both renal and hepatic failure, dose correction is carried out according to the table above.
Patients with impaired liver function only need to correct the dose of cetyrizin in the drops for ingestion
In case of impaired liver function it is necessary to select a dose of cetyricin in tablets individually, especially carefully with simultaneous renal failure.
The duration of admission is determined individually, usually with seasonal allergic rhinitis, the duration of therapy is from 3 to 6 weeks, and with short-term exposure to pollen, 1 week is enough.
The duration of therapy for children over 6 years old is from 2 to 4 weeks, and with short-term exposure to allergen, admission is sufficient for 1 week.
