Introduction

Fexofenadine Hydrochloride 180mg Tablets are non-drowsy antihistamines used primarily to treat chronic idiopathic urticaria, a condition that causes itchy, raised rashes and discomfort that persists for six weeks or longer. These tablets are also sometimes used off-label for severe allergic rhinitis when lower doses do not offer adequate relief.

This high-strength formulation is recommended for adults and adolescents experiencing more persistent or severe allergic reactions.

How It Works

Fexofenadine is a second-generation antihistamine that works by blocking histamine receptors in the body. Histamine is released during an allergic reaction and is responsible for symptoms such as swelling, itching, and rashes. Fexofenadine prevents histamine from binding to its receptors, reducing the allergic response and providing long-lasting relief.

The 180mg dose provides stronger symptom control and is effective over a full 24-hour period with just one tablet per day.

Why Choose Fexofenadine 180mg Tablets

Fexofenadine 180mg is the highest strength available without prescription in the UK. It offers enhanced symptom control and is suitable for people who have not responded to lower doses.

Important Note

Fexofenadine 180mg should not be taken more than once daily. Avoid grapefruit, apple, and orange juice as they may interfere with absorption. If symptoms persist, consult a pharmacist or GP. Store tablets at room temperature and keep them out of reach of children.
