Description
FEXODAT-180 contains Fexofenadine Hydrochloride 180 mg per tablet. Fexofenadine is a non-drowsy, second-generation antihistamine used to treat moderate to severe allergic symptoms and chronic urticaria (hives).
How FEXODAT-180 Works
Fexofenadine blocks H1 histamine receptors, reducing skin and airway reactions to allergens. It rapidly relieves symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, nasal and eye itching, and hives with minimal brain penetration—so it does not usually cause drowsiness.
