Why is Fexofenadine prescribed?
Fexofenadine relieves the itchy, runny nose, sneezing, and itchy, red, watery eyes that come with hay fever. Its effect begins in 1 hour and lasts 12 hours, peaking around the second or third hour. Fexofenadine is one of the new type of antihistamines that rarely cause drowsiness.


Most important fact about Fexofenadine
Seldane, an antihistamine related to Fexofenadine, has been implicated in dangerous interactions with the common antibiotic erythromycin, the antifungal medication ketoconazole (Nizoral), and several similar drugs. Fexofenadine poses no such risks. It is also safe for people with liver disease.
