Kirkland Signature Aller-tec 10mg Tablets - 365 ct

I have now used this specific product for over two years. I have regular allergy problems and take 1/2 table per day regularly. Often when we get smoked up in the summer time due to the huge forest fires..... like this year of 2013..... this has been very helpful. I am one of those who are suseptable to the side effects of this product and others like it..... products like Claritin and such will give me a pretty severe headache if I take the full tablet for too many days in a row. So, the half tablet works well, does not give headaches: also, this product works well in conjunction with other forms of anti-histimine without over dose problems. When the smoke was VERY bad for a while (several weeks end to end) I also took 1/2 Claritin at night, and an occassional supplement of the old stand by of the past 50 years, Chlorphiniramine maleate HCI..... another inexpensive generic anithistimine with minimal drowsy type of side effect. If you "need" the help, and are suffering under the effects of serious allergy symptoms, then your body will use these to help without overdose effects! If you do not need it, and take too much of any of these, then the side effects will be felt from headache, drowseyness, to extra dry mouth and sinuses for a few hours. Use them wisely and they are an amazingly good way to avoid useless doctor visits. Buy with confidence for these are every bit as good as the regular brand name products. Enjoy!

i started this last week after my cetirizine (which was wal-mart or walgreen's brand, depending, & which was no different than the name brand) ran out. the deal is immense. i am saving a ton of money!! where i live, the air quality is awful. we have a lot of really big cities near by (philadelphia, nyc, dc, baltimore) and a lot of du pont chemicals in the air & a lot of nuclear stuff & oil refineries (yay!). everyone here has allergies by time they hit 40 years of age even if they had none during childhood, even if they have not always lived here, and the people that did & do & have, experience chronic, low-grade sinus infections. Like me. not to mention my hideous allergies. i tend toward anaphylaxis, have year-round and seasonal allergies, anything with fur, probably other humans. i live with 2 cats who i love to pieces. cetirizine works better for me than i usually know, and better than other allergy meds. also, i am not allergic to it, like most other allergy meds. i am currently not taking my cetirizine or benadryl since over 24 hours ago, until tomorrow afternoon because i am going to get an allergy test done again, & i can soooo feel the difference. i woke up sneezing, am all tickly in my sinuses, clearing my throat & other allergy symptoms. i'll be glad when i can start taking this again tomorrow. this stuff is excellent. do not let the label miselead you.

This Kirkland allergy medicine is a great value for what you get. It comes with the perfect quantity that you know will last you a long time. I have used this religiously for years and will continue buying It from Amazon when I cannot make it into the store.

**Perform a price check before purchasing this item on Amazon. I thought I was getting a steal by purchasing the 365 count bottle with Amazon Prime, but the Costco website had this for several dollars cheaper. Kirkland is Costco's brand, so someone is re-selling the item on Amazon at a mark-up. Overall, I am highly satisfied with the product I received.** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As a pharmacist, cetirizine (generic for Zyrtec) is my favorite, non-drowsy antihistamine. This medication is typically given once daily for seasonal allergies, itchy/runny nose, sneezing, or itchy/watery eyes. As the label shows, it is approved for use in adults and children 6 years and older. Cetirizine (generic for Zyrtec) is very similar to loratadine (generic for Claritin). Typically, cetirizine is viewed as equal to, if not better than loratadine for allergies. In comparison, cetirizine has a greater risk of drowsiness than loratadine. Drowsiness tends to occur in around 15% of people taking cetirizine. I generally worry with purchasing healthcare products online. What about the quality, safety, and proper storage of the product from manufacturing to transport? The label on the bottle shows the product was made in India and distributed by Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Inc. (This company is well known in the pharmacy world. They have made many over-the-counter and prescription strength medications for years.) So, if this was truly made by Dr. Reddy's Laboratories, Inc. then I trust the medication was at least made correctly. The tablets are small (1cm in size), white ovals with the letter "c" on one side and no markings on the other. These pill markings match the description of cetirizine on pharmacy databases. The tablets are gluten free, and lactose is used in forming the tablets. The expiration date on the product I received was in early 2015; however, this will vary from order to order. After using the product for almost a month, I am pleased with the results and quality of the product.

I am a med school student who has terrible allergies. Allergies is a subject I'm quite familiar because I've done so much research to treat my own allergies. Without question, the medication that every person who struggles with allergies should be on is Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec). It's the only second generation antihistamine (the other well-known ones are Claritin and Allegra) that works for a full 24 hours. Furthermore, it is also the most potent. I take one every night at 6 PM. It became quite pricey though, so one day I got the bright idea to search Amazon for Cetirizine. My mind was blown when I saw that Kirkland sold a year's worth for less than $20. I now recommend to my patient's that they buy the the Kirkland Cetirizine from amazon (and if they are taking claritin or allegra, I recommend they change to Zyrtec). However, for many of you with moderate to severe nasal congestion, cetirizine alone will not do the trick. Thankfully, triamcinolone acetonide (aka nasacort) is now approved to be sold OTC. It is very safe and effective, and together with this Kirkland's cetirizine, your allergies should be taken care off. PS: Hopefully Kirkland will start making triamcinolone acetonide soon, because it can be quite pricey.

I developed dust and pet allergies late in life, with four cats, three dogs, and a family in the peat moss business. After trying all the other OTC options, I picked up a bottle of Zyrtec at Walgreens (in spite of the fact that I would swear there's also an engine degunker by that name) and was amazed at how well it worked. And how much it cost. Next stop, Amazon store brands. The bottle contains 365 tablets and I take one every morning of my life to prevent attacks. As a result, I only have three or four bad allergy days a year (when I take diphenhydramine at night to treat symptoms). Huge improvement over the weeks or months I used to spend in bed, totally debilitated by headaches and sinus pain. It's probably not for everyone, allergies are as different as the people who have them, but it keeps me reasonably upright and headache free for just $18 a year. And when doctors ask what meds I'm on and I can't remember the active ingredient, I can say "It's the one that's like citrus but isn't" and they all know what I mean.

My wife and I are both allergic to cats. We just adopted a cat. Genius, right? My wife has been taking generic Zyrtec (cetirizine) for quite a while and while it's not perfect, her allergies let her know when she forgets to take it. Occasionally after a few months it seems to stop working for her, so she switches to Allegra for a few weeks and switches back. It seems to reset the cycle. Before the cat, I never needed to take daily allergy medicine. After the cat had a chance to settle in and get her dander all over the place, my allergies were in a full-on offensive attack mode. I don't know why, but after I started taking this medication, it seemed to take a day or two to reach full effectiveness. But after it started working, it helped. Between this product and the HEPA filter we bought, my allergies, while present, are minimal and very bearable. A big thank you to this product to helping my wife and I enjoy our new cat! Also, I can't say enough about the value of this product. Target's brand of 180 pills is $32.89, or $0.18 per pill, which compared to the brand name, is a pretty good deal. This product, at $19.99 for 365 pills, is $0.05 per pill. That's incredible. Don't hesitate to buy.

I ran a semi-scientific study on myself for just under a year. Each week, according to a rotating schedule, I'd either take this Zyrtec (Cetirizine), Allegra, Nasonex (for 2 week blocks, as it needs to build up), or nothing (control). Claritin was not included as I took it for many years and was not effective. Thee times a day I recorded a rating of how bad my allergies were and how tired I was (to try to measure the drowsiness effect of these drugs). I abandoned Nasonex after a while because I was getting headaches when I took it, my allergies felt worse, and just reading the side effects freaked me out. I didn't get enough data on Nasonex to prove it was bad, but I didn't want to take it anymore. After the study, I didn't even bother to dig into the data very much. Cetirizine/Zyrtec was clearly more effective than Allegra or nothing and the drowsy effect negligible. This is BY FAR the cheapest way to buy Cetirizine, and is of course equally effective as any other brand.

Sent me a close to expired product.
