Patient summary
Fexofenadine 120mg and 180mg film-coated tablets, used for seasonal allergic rhinitis and urticaria. A second-generation H1-receptor antagonist.
Mechanism of action
Fexofenadine is a selective H1-receptor antagonist. It competes with histamine at central and peripheral H1-receptors, thereby inhibiting the allergic response without significant sedative effects associated with first-generation antihistamines.

Allegra is a film-coated tablet containing fexofenadine, a second-generation antihistamine. It comes in 120 mg and 180 mg strengths and is used to treat allergic rhinitis and urticaria. The originator company is Sanofi, and the medicine is also known by the name Telfast.
Fexofenadine competes with histamine at H1 receptors, which limits the allergic response without the marked sedation seen with older antihistamines. A dose starts working within about an hour and lasts around 24 hours. It should not be taken with fruit juices, and it is not recommended for children under 12. It is not for people with a hypersensitivity to fexofenadine. Drowsiness can still occur, so caution is advised. Anaphylaxis, angioedema or chest tightness need immediate medical attention.
