Description:

Cetirizine, a second-generation antihistamine, can help relieve Eustachian Tube Dysfunction (ETD) caused by allergies by reducing nasal and Eustachian tube inflammation. By blocking histamine, it helps decrease mucus production and swelling, potentially improving Eustachian tube drainage and reducing ear pressure. However, it does not provide immediate relief and is most effective when used regularly for allergy-related ETD rather than for short-term congestion.
