| 3 | sinus infections | Major admominal cramping (like menstrual cramps). Fatigue, moody (angry). | Also take Nasonex, which I think I'll stop both medications. | F | 40 | | 5/21/2008 | 1 | Allergies | Took in evening as directed. Woke up VERY groggy with horrible headache. Also, my ears hurt and I'm more congested than I was without it. Now feels like I have a cold. Cannot imagne having to suffer these side-effects every day. I have only taken 1 pill and it will be my last. | I know this is a derivative of Zyrtec so probably won't take that either. I'd rather suffer the symptoms than the side-effects. | M | 44 | 1 days | 4/11/2008 | 1 | allergies | Unable to sleep, anger | M | 45 | 2 weeks | 4/3/2008 | 4 | intense itching | Weight gain -- 5 lbs. in 10 days -- Major pain in hips and lower back.. Abdominal pain -- | I was switched to xyzal after taking Fexofenadine for several years -- 1 pill in am and 1 pill at nite ...180 MG Both pills stopped my itching -- but, i have gained 30 lbs in the last 4 years... also, bad abdominal pains--like menstrual cramps..i feel really old... | F | 54 | 21 days | 4/2/2008 | 1 | seasonal allergies | SEVERE fatigue - I couldn't keep my eyes open or get out of bed until it had been about 15 hours since I took the pill. | After 2 chances, I am not going to try this again. I was far too "drugged" feeling. | F | 33 | 2 days | 3/31/2008 | 3 | Allergic rhinitis | Very very groggy upon waking the next morning after taking this at night as prescribed. Also had a headache which may or may not have been a result of the medication. It did help with allergy symptoms but not sure if the side effects don't outweigh the benefits. | F | 50 | 3 days | 3/22/2008 | 5 | Allergies,,Asthma | Have had no side effects with this medicine. | Xyzal replaced Zyrtec. Seems to be working as well as Zyrtec if not better. | M | 38 | 6 months | 3/19/2008 | 5 | Allergies,Asthma | None to report. Well tolerated. | I have been on Xyzal for several months now as a replacement for Zyrtec that is now an over the counter medicine. Xyzal works just as good if not better. I have had no side effects with this drug. | M | 38 | 5 months | 3/18/2008 | 5 | allergic rhinitus | Made me stupid. Don't take this drug if you're trying to write reports, explain concepts, or get any work done. | Definitely cleared up my congestion. I have asthma and my doctor is concerned about a cold I have had and how it's worsening my asthma symptoms. She prescribed this to help dry me up and it's definitely doing the trick. | F | 36 | 2 days | 2/9/2008 |
