POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
10 mg once daily (1 tablet).
Special population
Elderly: Data do not suggest that the dose needs to be reduced in
elderly subjects provided that the
renal function is normal.
_ _
Renal impairment: There are no data to document the efficacy/safety
ratio in patients with renal
impairment. Since cetirizine is mainly excreted via renal route (see
section 5.2), in cases no alternative
treatment can be used, the dosing intervals must be individualized
according to renal function. Refer
to the following table and adjust the dose as indicated.
