Product Description
Telfast 180mg Tablets (15 tablets) is a long-acting, non-sedating antihistamine that provides powerful 24-hour relief from symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever) such as sneezing, runny/itchy nose, itchy palate, and red, itchy, watery eyes. It is also highly effective for chronic idiopathic urticaria (hives) – reducing itching and the number/size of wheals. Fexofenadine works by selectively blocking peripheral H1 receptors with virtually no brain penetration, so it does not cause drowsiness in the vast majority of people (incidence similar to placebo). Onset within 1 hour, peak effect 2–3 hours. Can be taken with or without food; no interaction with fruit juices. Manufactured by Sanofi; store below 25°C. Benefits • Full 24-hour control with just ONE tablet daily • Truly non-drowsy – safe for driving, operating machinery, studying, or work • Strongest over-the-counter dose for moderate-to-severe hay fever • Excellent relief from hives and skin itching • No cardiovascular warnings (unlike older antihistamines) How to Use • Adults and children ≥12 years: 1 tablet once daily with water • May be taken morning or evening, with or without food • For seasonal allergies: start a few days before expected pollen season and continue as needed • For hives: use until symptoms resolve (can be long-term under medical advice) • If a dose is missed, take as soon as remembered unless almost time for next dose – do not double up
