I am taking Minoxidil and Terazosin, Pacerone,Benazipril, and a couple of others. I have had atrial flutter. Zertec was suggested by my dermatologist. I took one Zyrtec and immediately went back into flutter. I took no more and in five days I was back to normal. Conclusion: anyone who has had atrial flutter and takes Zyrtec is in danger of the flutter returning..
