ALLEGRA SUSPENSION contains Fexofenadine, which belongs to the group of medicines called Antihistamines. It is used to provide relief from symptoms associated with seasonal allergic rhinitis in children (aged 2 to 11 years). It is also used to manage uncomplicated skin manifestations of chronic idiopathic urticaria in children (aged 6 months to 11 years of age).
Seasonal allergic rhinitis is an inflammatory condition of the upper airways that occurs in response to exposure to airborne allergens (such as tree, grass, and weed pollens) in sensitized individuals and is generally characterized by symptoms such as nasal stuffiness, itchy nose, throat, and eyes, headache, and weakness. Chronic idiopathic urticaria is a disturbing allergic condition of the skin that recurs without any known cause and is generally characterized by symptoms such as raised or swollen wheals on the skin, itching, and swelling of the lips, eyelids, or throat.
Avoid giving fruit juices (such as grapefruit, orange, and apple juice) to your child while taking ALLEGRA SUSPENSION since it may reduce the effect of this medicine. Before administering ALLEGRA SUSPENSION, inform your child’s doctor if your child has liver, kidney, or heart problems. ALLEGRA SUSPENSION is not recommended for use in children who are allergic to fexofenadine.
It is not indicated for use in pregnant and breastfeeding women since it is recommended for use only in children. The most common side effects of taking ALLEGRA SUSPENSION are headache, back pain, dizziness, stomach discomfort, pain in extremities, fever, middle ear infection, and vomiting. Contact the child's physician if any of the symptoms worsen.
