Today, one of the most common diseases among children and adults is allergy. In the first place among allergens occupy food. In addition, the causes of allergic diseases can be household chemicals, pets, medicines and even plant pollen. In the latter case, the allergy is seasonal in nature, so people who suffer from this form of the disease need an effective drug. One of these is the second generation antihistamine drug - Lomilan. It is important to note that this medication is often mistakenly given the name Lominal.
Lomilan is one of the most common medicines used to eliminate the symptoms of an allergic disease. Since Lomilan is a second-generation antihistamine drug, it can be used even for children, but still with some caution, as this drug has a number of adverse reactions.

Forms of release

Lomilan can have two forms of release: tablets and suspension. As a rule, Lomilan suspension is intended for the treatment of various types of allergies in children. In addition, both forms effectively eliminate the symptoms of pseudo-allergy.

Composition

The composition of Lomilan includes the active substance loratadine, which blocks the H1-histamine receptors. In addition to loratadine, both syrup and tablets contain additional substances that are auxiliary.

Pills

White tablets, round and flat. Also have a notch on one side.
    The presence of a notch on one side of the tablet indicates that you can take half. Tablets that do not have such a notch should be taken only whole, not separating them.
The composition of one tablet contains:
    loratadine - 10 mg (active ingredient);
    lactose, gelatinized starch, corn starch, magnesium stearate (auxiliary substances).

pharmachologic effect

Pharmacological action of the drug is based on the fact that the active substance blocks the H1-histamine receptors. It is because these receptors are blocked that histamine cannot communicate with them and thereby cause the onset of allergy symptoms.
    IMPORTANT! Loratadine is very rapidly absorbed into the blood from the gastrointestinal tract. In this regard, a positive effect is observed within 30 minutes after using the medication and lasts for 24 hours.
Therefore, it is recommended to use pills or syrup once a day to avoid overdose.

Indications for use

Lomilan is recommended to be taken in the following cases:
    during seasonal allergies, which is accompanied by allergic rhinitis;
    with manifestations of allergic conjunctivitis;
    with any manifestations on the skin (urticaria, redness, itching, etc.) that are allergic in nature;
    irritation from insect bites;
    pseudo-allergies.

Contraindications

Like any other drug, Lomilan is contraindicated for those people who have an increased sensitivity to any component of the tablet or suspension. It should be noted that this drug is not recommended for patients with renal failure. This is due to the fact that the drug is excreted through the kidneys.
    ATTENTION! Lomilan syrup for children, as well as pills can not be taken to children under two years of age, because the drug has a number of side effects that may adversely affect the health of the child.

Side effects of Lomilan

Among the side effects that can occur in adults are:
    headache;
    decrease in working capacity;
    nausea;
    dryness in the mouth;
    abnormal liver function;
    the appearance of a rash on the skin;
    in rare cases, alopecia (hair loss).
In children, side effects may be:
    headache;
    irritability;
    drowsiness.

Instructions for use of the drug in tablets for adults

If Lomilan was chosen for the treatment of allergies, the instructions for use of the tablet imply taking no more than one tablet per day for adults. That is, the daily rate, which has a therapeutic effect, should not exceed 10 mg of the active substance loratadine. The same applies to children over 12 years old.
IMPORTANT! You should take any medicine, including Lomilan, only after consulting with your doctor.
    ATTENTION! It is possible to take Lomilan to pregnant women only if the benefit to the mother is significantly greater than the possible harm to the fetus. As for mothers who feed the baby with breast milk, at the time of treatment with this drug should stop breastfeeding, because the medicine gets into breast milk.

Overdose

In cases where the patient does not follow the recommendations of the attending physician and, moreover, has not read the information contained in the instructions before taking the medicine, an overdose may occur. Symptoms appear from the side of the nervous system.

Symptoms

A description of the symptoms that may occur with Lomilan overdose may be noted:
    Strong headache;
    cardiopalmus;
    drowsiness.
Such symptoms may be prolonged.

What to do?

If it so happens that an overdose of Lomilan has occurred, then the first thing to be done is to clear the gastrointestinal tract from this medication. This can be done by washing the stomach. In addition, it will not be superfluous to accept sorbents that will promote the binding of Lomilan and its removal from the digestive system.
    IMPORTANT! There is no antidote against Lomilan in overdose.

Interaction with other drugs

With the use of drugs such as Zimetidine and Ketoconazole, there is an increase in the blood of loratadine. If ethanol, Rifampicin, some depressants or barbiturates are taken at the same time as Lomilan, this will lead to a decrease in the effectiveness of the active substance.

Reviews of patients on the treatment of allergies Lomilan

My son is 14 years old. And we are faced with such a problem as an allergy to pollen (presumably pines). It manifested itself in the form of allergic rhinitis, a slight swelling of the respiratory tract, which made it difficult to breathe. At first, we thought it was a common cold, but when it dragged on for a week, we turned to a doctor for help. The doctor said it was an allergy and advised Lomilan for treatment. Reviews that I read on the Internet in various forums were only positive. I can say that already after 30 minutes after taking the pill a positive effect was noticeable, and all the symptoms of allergy disappeared after 2 days.

Veronica, St. Petersburg

I suffered from allergies for a long time. I had a terrible body rash, and besides, it was all very itchy. Regular ointment did not help me, so I went to the doctor. He advised me to treat the disease not only symptomatically, but also comprehensively. To this end, the doctor recommended buying only Lomilan. Already after the first pill, I felt a noticeable relief: the skin, where there was a rash, ceased to itch, and the redness slowly began to disappear. A few days later I forgot about allergies.
