How XYZAL works

XYZAL is an antihistamine that provides powerful relief

XYZAL works by blocking histamine from attaching to many of the histamine receptors. The fewer receptors available, the less histamine can attach and trigger symptoms.

XYZAL provides powerful nasal allergy symptom relief in a tiny pill. It starts to work fast–at 60 minutes. And it lasts 24 hours, so you can count on it working all night, and all day the next day.

Ask your doctor about XYZAL

Before you can start experiencing the powerful relief of the XYZAL, you need a prescription from your doctor. So speak with your doctor to see if XYZAL is right for you–before another allergy season has you sneezing and suffering.

Symptom relief began at 60 minutes after exposure to pollen, and was still seen at 24 hours.
