Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The prone hour for chronic urticaria varies in every patient. Because a medical package insert recommends to take medicine in the suggested timing, patients usually do not take medicine immediately after the lesion develops. If standard dosage of medicine is not effective, to increase the dosage is one possibility. However, the most effective timing for taking increased dose has not been studied yet. We want to elucidate the desirable timing for taking increased dose. The aim of this study is to investigate the suitable timing for taking increased dose as for levocetirizine (Xyzal®), a second generation anti-histamine drug.
