What Makes XYZAL® Effective

Fast-Acting, Long-Lasting Allergy Symptom Relief

XYZAL works fast—in studies exposing patients to pollen, XYZAL started relieving allergy symptoms at 60 minutes.

It also works strong and lasts long—with powerful 24-hour relief of indoor and outdoor allergy symptoms. What's more, studies showed XYZAL effectively worked in relieving allergy symptoms over four weeks of treatment.

Once-a-Day Dosing

XYZAL is designed to keep up with your lifestyle by offering convenient, once-daily PM dosing for 24 hours of allergy symptom relief.

How XYZAL Works

If you have indoor and/or outdoor allergies, you may know that breathing in allergens like pollen or dander causes your immune system to release a chemical substance called histamine into your bloodstream. Once histamine is released, it attaches to proteins in the body called histamine receptors, which then trigger your allergy symptoms. By blocking histamine from attaching to certain cells, the medicine relieves your allergy symptoms.

How XYZAL Works

One Tablet, Three Conditions

In just 1 small pill a day, XYZAL provides powerful relief of your indoor and outdoor allergy symptoms, including sneezing, itchy and runny nose, and itchy eyes. XYZAL has been clinically proven to provide significant allergy relief for people 6 years of age and older.

XYZAL also treats rash and hives associated with a skin condition known as chronic idiopathic urticaria (CIU). CIU is different from seasonal or perennial allergies and is characterized by red, swollen, and itchy bumps that form on the skin. This condition lasts longer than 6 weeks and has no specific known cause.
