ENADIN TABLETS (Fexofenadine 120mg)
DRUG CATEGORY: Antihistamine/ H1-receptor Antagonist
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Like other H1-blockers, Fexofenadine competes with free histamine for binding at H1-receptors in the GI tract, large blood vessels, and bronchial smooth muscle. This blocks the action of endogenous histamine, which subsequently leads to temporary relief of the negative symptoms (eg. nasal congestion, watery eyes) brought on by histamine. Fexofenadine exhibits no anticholinergic, antidopaminergic, alpha1-adrenergic or beta-adrenergic-receptor blocking effects.
INDICATIONS: Chronic idiopathic urticaria, Perennial allergic rhinitis, Seasonal allergic rhinitis, Allergic asthma, Physical urticaria, Atopic dermatitis.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: One tablet once a day or twice a day depending upon the severity of illness.
PRESENTATION: Enadin tablets are presented in ALU ALU pack of 1×10’s
