2. Quick View:
Levocetirizine (as levocetirizine dihydrochloride) is a third-generation non-sedative antihistamine, developed from the second-generation antihistamine cetirizine. Chemically, levocetirizine is the active enantiomer of cetirizine. It is the R-enantiomer of the cetirizine racemate. Levocetirizine works by blocking histamine receptors. It does not prevent the actual release of histamine from mast cells, but prevents it binding to its receptors. This in turn prevents the release of other allergy chemicals and increased blood supply to the area, and provides relief from the typical symptoms of hay fever.
3. History and formulations:

It is sold under the brand name Xyzal in Australia, Austria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Ireland, Lithuania, Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Taiwan, Turkey, The Philippines, United States, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, South Africa and UK; Xuzal in Mexico; Xusal in Germany; Xazal in Spain; and Xozal in Greece.
