Fexofenadine hydrochloride 120 mg + Pseudoephedrine hydrochloride 60 mg
Relief of symptoms of allergic rhinitis (hay fever) with nasal congestion such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy/watery eyes, and blocked nose
Fexofenadine is a non-sedating antihistamine that blocks H1 receptors to reduce allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching and watery eyes. Pseudoephedrine is a sympathomimetic decongestant that constricts blood vessels in the nasal passages to reduce swelling and congestion.
Take as directed by a doctor. Usually taken orally with water; can be taken with or without food. Avoid taking with fruit juices (e.g., apple/orange/grapefruit) as they may reduce fexofenadine absorption. Do not crush or chew if the tablet is modified/extended release.
