 This study was conducted as a non-controlled and open-label clinical study for the purpose of investigating the safety, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of levocetirizine oral solution in Japanese pediatric patients aged ≧6 months and <2 years with allergic rhinitis or pruritus associated with skin disease. The dosage regimen of this product was specified depending on age. In the younger age group(aged ≧6 months and <1 year), 1.25 mg was orally administered once a day for 2 weeks, and in the older age group(aged ≧1 year and <2 years), 1.25 mg was orally administered twice a day for 2 weeks.  The safety profiles of levocetirizine oral solution(aged ≧6 months and <1 year, aged ≧1 year and <2 years)were acceptable with no differences in safety, efficacy, or pharmacokinetics observed between the two age groups.  Levocetirizine oral solution demonstrated improvement of both allergic rhinitis and pruritus associated with skin disease. When the plasma levocetirizine concentrations were determined with the dosage regimen used in this study, the Cmax was comparable between the patients aged ≧6 months and <1 year and the patients aged ≧1 year and<2 years. Compliance with the study drug regimen was favorable in both age groups studied.  Thus levocetirizine oral solution can be an efficacious and well-tolerated option for Japanese children with as young as 6 months of age.
