Mizollen

Description

Mizollen is an antihistamine medication that contains the active ingredient levocetirizine. It works by blocking the effects of histamine in your body, which helps to relieve symptoms of allergies such as sneezing, itching, and watery eyes. Mizollen is suitable for adults and children over 6 years old who suffer from conditions like hay fever, allergic rhinitis, or chronic idiopathic urticaria.
