About Levomic MK Kid Tablet

Levomic MK Kid Tablet is used to treat various kinds of allergies. An allergy is an immune system response to foreign elements, typically not harmful to the body. These foreign elements are known as allergens. Allergic condition varies from person to person. Some might be allergic to certain foods and seasonal allergies like hay fever.

Levomic MK Kid Tablet contains levocetirizine, a non-drowsy antihistamine that helps manage allergic reactions. It works by blocking the effects of histamine, a natural chemical in the body that causes allergy symptoms.

In some cases, your child may experience headaches, dry mouth, sickness, dizziness, stomach pain and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if you notice any of these side effects persist or worsen your child’s condition, inform your doctor immediately.
