Philcet Dosage/Direction for Use

In adults and children aged 6 years and over, Levocetirizine hydrochloride is given by mouth in a dose of 5 mg once daily. The dose should be reduced in patients with renal impairment. The recommended dose in patients with moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance 30 to 49 mL per minute) is 5 mg every 2 days.
Special dosage instructions for specific populations: Renal and hepatic impairment: Patients who have severe impairment of kidney function must not take Levocetirizine. Patients who only have impaired liver function should take the usual prescribed dose. Patients who have both impaired liver and kidney function may be given a lower dose depending on the severity of the kidney disease, and in children the dose will also be chosen on the basis of body weight; the dose will be determined by your doctor.
Elderly patients aged 65 years and above: No adaptation of the dose is necessary in elderly patients, provided their renal function is normal.
Use in children: Levocetirizine is not recommended for children under 6 years of age.
