Allegra D Tablet

Drug | Tablet

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.

Headache, dizziness, nausea, dry mouth, insomnia, restlessness, palpitations, increased heart rate, anxiety

Use with caution in hypertension, heart disease, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, glaucoma, enlarged prostate/urinary retention, and kidney impairment. May cause insomnia, nervousness or palpitations; avoid late-evening dosing if it affects sleep. Do not use with other decongestants or stimulant-containing cold medicines without advice. Seek medical help for chest pain, severe headache, significant rise in BP, or allergic reaction.

MAO inhibitors (contraindicated/avoid), other sympathomimetics/decongestants, tricyclic antidepressants, linezolid, beta-blockers and other antihypertensives (may reduce effect), antacids containing aluminium/magnesium (reduce fexofenadine absorption; separate by 2 hours), erythromycin/ketoconazole (may increase fexofenadine levels), fruit juices (reduce fexofenadine absorption)

Store at room temperature (below 25°C), protected from moisture and direct light. Keep out of reach of children.
