Fexofenadine - indications for use

The drug Fexofenadine is a strong agent that is prescribed in the most severe cases of the manifestation of an allergic reaction. It helps with the following symptoms:
    rhinitis, manifested in spring during the flowering period, or incessant throughout the year;
    urticaria, which can cover large areas of skin, and angioedema;
    itching in red spots or on mucous membranes;
    profuse tearing;
    rashes on the skin of various shapes and colors.
    Pills are also prescribed for chronic diseases caused by allergies.

Composition, active substance, release form

The active substance Fexofenadine hydrochloride, which can be contained in various antihistamine preparations - Feksadine, Telfast, Terfenadine and other preparations, actively blocks histamines and is characterized by high efficiency and duration of therapeutic action. This medicine belongs to the second and third generation, therefore it has fewer side effects, unlike other similar drugs. Fexofenadine is produced in the form of tablets or suspensions of different dosages, which makes it possible to prescribe it in the treatment of patients of different age categories.

How to take the drug to children and adults - instructions

The manufacturer in the attached instructions indicates all the necessary information that should be studied before using the medication. Depending on the form of release, recommendations may vary. In particular, the suspension must be well mixed to prevent the formation of a precipitate at the bottom of the vial. Such a drug should be stored in the refrigerator so that it loses its therapeutic properties.
The tablets covered with a special cover are washed down exclusively with water.
The dosage required to achieve a therapeutic effect depends on the age of the patient, as well as the severity of the symptoms associated with the disease. Manufacturer's recommendations on this are as follows:
    patients over 12 years old with allergic rhinitis and pollinosis - 120 ml per day, and at the urticaria - 180 mg at one time during the day;
    children from 6 to 11 years with allergies, in all its manifestations, are prescribed from 30 mg 2 times a day, and for chronic diseases of the liver and kidneys - 30 mg at one time.
    At the same time, Fexofenadine should be taken only with obvious signs of allergy, and as soon as the condition improves, treatment can be stopped.
The drug can cause a negative reaction, so people whose professional activities require a quick reaction to the events, should refuse to treat them.

Features of the drug during pregnancy, breastfeeding

Fexofenadine should not be combined with pregnancy and lactation, as this may adversely affect the development of the child. In such an important period for each woman, it is better to choose more benign methods of allergy treatment.

Contraindications, side effects

There are conditions in which to use this drug in treatment, besides pregnancy, also not worth it:
    negative reaction to the active substance of the drug, which is manifested individually;
    pre-school age (up to 6 years);
    conditions associated with pathology of the kidneys and liver.
Taking Fexofenadine may entail a negative reaction of the body, manifested in the form of:
    insomnia;
    diarrhea or constipation;
    headaches;
    nausea;
    lower back pain;
    increased fatigue;
    dizziness;
    metabolic and metabolite disorders;
    ARVI;
    anemia.
At the first signs of manifestation of negative symptoms, you should immediately refuse treatment with Fexofenadine and make an appointment with a doctor for a new appointment.

Fexofenadine-Akrihin

Another drug made on the basis of fexofenadine is a 3-generation H1-histamine receptor blocker that does an excellent job. Feksofenadin-Akrihin begins to act within an hour after application, and works within 24 hours, protecting the body from unwanted exposure to external stimuli. In addition, it is not addictive, and also does not affect the nervous system, therefore it is allowed to people whose professional activity depends on quick reaction and increased attention. But they also need to test the drug on themselves to ensure that there is no individual intolerance and an unforeseen reaction of the body.
The drug is not prescribed for:
    pregnancy and lactation;
    individual intolerance to its components;
    children under 12 years old.
You can take it with caution in case of kidney failure, as well as in old age, since the body's response to the drug in these cases is very difficult to guess. In addition, Feksofenadin-Akrikhin, like all antihistamines, can cause tachycardia, so it is not recommended for patients with heart disease. In case of overdose, headaches, dizziness, as well as drowsiness and nausea are possible.

Interaction with other drugs

Some substances can increase the effect of fexofenadine in the blood, so their joint reception must be considered in the calculation of the dosage. For example, taking Telfast or another analogue at the same time as Ketoconazole and Erythromycin, can increase the antihistamine effect. But this increases the number of side effects. The reverse effect can be achieved if you take fexofenadine with antacids, which include aluminum and magnesium. This reduces its antihistamine properties. Fexofenadine hydrochloride is well combined with omeprazole.

Fexofenadine Reviews

You can spend a lot of time studying the recommendations of doctors, reviews and instructions from the manufacturer, try to analyze the information received, but you still can’t understand if you should use Fexofenadine in the treatment of allergies. Testimonials from people who have already tried this drug on themselves will sometimes say a lot more useful tips that will help you make the right choice.
Statistics show that against the background of high efficiency, Fexofenadine rarely causes side effects. This is proved by numerous reviews of grateful patients:
Angelica - seasonal allergies
“Previously, during the flowering period, I could sit at home for weeks and be afraid to look out the window. Of course, I took drugs for allergies, but many caused such side effects that some had to be abandoned altogether, while others did not come at a price. Fexofenadine is sold at an affordable price, does not cause drowsiness and relieves all allergy symptoms. Now I take only him and don’t remember the constant itching in the eyes and nasal congestion. ”
Alexey, Moscow - urticaria
“Acting quickly - immediately after taking it can be observed as the urticaria gradually passes. But the full effect comes after some time, especially if the additional rash is treated with other antihistamines. I have never observed the side effects prescribed in the instructions for use. The drug is safe and high quality. "
Olga, is an allergic mother
“The first signs of an allergy were manifested in a daughter in kindergarten. Such a reaction to cosmetics, and even to children's cream, cost us a lot of nerves and tried drugs. They all helped quickly, but their action also soon ceased. Only recently, began to use fexofenadine, since the child was 12 years old. While the drug shows itself only from the best side - during the day the daughter does not remember about allergies and breathes normally. What else is needed for happiness ?! "
