Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Nilhist 20 Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Nilhist 20 Tablet

Nilhist 20 Tablet contains Bilastine (20mg). It belongs to the Antihistamine / leukotriene antagonist class of medicines.

Uses of Nilhist 20 Tablet

Allergic conditions

Benefits of Nilhist 20 Tablet

In Allergic rhinitis
Nilhist blocks the histamine your body releases to an allergen, relieving the sneezing, runny or blocked nose and itchy, watery eyes that spoil your day.
In Hives and skin allergy
Nilhist calms the itching and brings down the raised, red weals of hives, so the skin settles and you can sleep.
In Itching
Nilhist relieves itching from an allergic reaction, an insect bite or a skin condition, which also stops the scratching that damages skin and keeps it inflamed.
In Allergic asthma
Nilhist reduces the allergic inflammation in the airways that triggers wheezing and tightness, so attacks are fewer and milder when it is taken alongside your inhaler.

How Nilhist 20 Tablet works

Nilhist 20mg Tablet is an antiallergic medication. It treats allergy symptoms such as such as itching, swelling, and rashes by blocking the effects of a chemical messenger (histamine) in the body.

How to take Nilhist 20 Tablet

Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, crush or break it unless your doctor has told you to. Take it with or without food, often in the evening. Taking it at about the same time each day helps you remember. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause severe drowsiness, a fast heartbeat, confusion and, in children, agitation and fits. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Nilhist 20 Tablet

Most side effects of Nilhist are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Nilhist 20mg Tablet does not pose serious side effects and is well-tolerated by children.
  • In case the side effects do occur, they’re likely to subside once the body adapts to the medicine.
  • Consult your child’s doctor if these side effects persist or bother your child.
  • The most common side effects include-

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions

Older antihistamines cause marked drowsiness — do not drive or operate machinery until you know how this affects you. Tell your doctor promptly about any change in mood, sleep, agitation or unusual thoughts while taking montelukast; this is uncommon but recognised. This relieves the symptoms of an allergy; it does not treat the cause, and it is not a treatment for an acute asthma attack. Seek emergency care for swelling of the lips, tongue or throat, or difficulty breathing.

Do not take Nilhist if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. The sedating antihistamines are not suitable for very young children, or for people with glaucoma or an enlarged prostate, without medical advice.

Interactions with other medicines

Alcohol, sleeping tablets and other sedating medicines add to the drowsiness. Tell your doctor about all cold and cough preparations — many already contain an antihistamine.

How to store Nilhist 20 Tablet

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
