Cetirizine dihydrochloride and cetirizine hydrochloride work exactly the same way when treating hay fever and allergies. The difference between these lies primarily in their chemical composition and structure, but there is not a known difference regarding their effectiveness as allergy treatments. Both forms are effective in relieving allergic symptoms.
If you take more than the maximum dose of Cetirizine, talk to a doctor straight away, or go to your nearest hospital causality department. You should also take the medication and information leaflet with you, so the medical professionals know exactly what you have taken.

are allergic to Cetirizine dihydrochloride or any of the other ingredients in the medication
have serious kidney problems
