About this deal

Fexofenadine is not usually recommended if you're pregnant as there is not a lot of information about its use in pregnancy. The application contained a risk management plan ( RMP). RMPs are documents that contain information on a medicine’s safety profile and one or more of the following: Some people’s bodies treat pollen as a harmful substance. In response, their bodies fire chemicals called histamines to remove the pollen. Any indirect dangers associated with the above-mentioned excluded populations (e.g. individuals with a history of heart disease) from taking the product is considered to be low. As a P medicine, pharmacists would be able to advise these individuals that the product can only be taken on the advice of a doctor. 5.2 POM Criteria 2 5.2.1 Incorrect Use In adults, the following undesirable effects have been reported in post-marketing surveillance. The frequency with which they occur is not known (cannot be estimated from available data):

Always take your fexofenadine tablets with a drink of water. Swallow them whole – do not chew them. When to take itSpeaking in an interview Dr Scadding said: “Across the world hayfever now affects over a billion people. Hayfever actually affects quality of life quite remarkably. People tend to dismiss it but in fact the symptoms are really difficult to live with, so it really needs treating seriously and properly.” When filling out the online medical form, it is imperative that you inform our medical team of all other medicines you are currently taking. This includes medicines that have been prescribed by your doctor, or bought over the counter.

The RMP for Allevia 120mg tablets identified the main risks associated with the product and proposed how these would be managed through routine pharmacovigilance (monitoring and reporting of adverse events for a medicine, for which there are no special safety concerns) and via the product information (SPC, labelling and patient information leaflet). No additional risk minimisation measures were proposed for the product. 9. Advice from the Commission on Human Medicines If you experience any side effects - regardless of whether they are listed below or in the patient information leaflet - inform a doctor right away. One other simple measure is simply to wash the nose out with salty water or saline. You can buy sprays or you can make up your own and that does help to reduce symptoms considerably and reduces the amount of medication the patient needs to take. A very good point is to avoid using much alcohol during the hayfever season because it tends to make symptoms worse.” Fexofenadine does not undergo hepatic biotransformation and therefore will not interact with other medicinal products through hepatic mechanisms. Fexofenadine causes less side effects compared to first generation antihistamines, advises Dr Scadding. She said: “Second-generation antihistamines such as fexofenadine have less affinity for cholinergic and alpha-adrenergic receptors and therefore do not display the anticholinergic side effects that other antihistamines do. Fexofenadine can also inhibit other mechanisms such as mast cell, basophilic histamine, and inflammatory cell release.”

If you're breastfeeding or planning to breastfeed, talk to your doctor or pharmacist, as other antihistamines called loratadine and cetirizine might be better while you're breastfeeding. This prescription-strength hay fever tablet is available over the counter from pharmacies, and online from us. This has been considered under the POM criteria 2 (section 5.2). 7.3 Special precautions in handling Direct danger’ means that a danger may be present if the product causes adverse reactions that are important. Try to take fexofenadine tablets at about the same time every day. Choose a time that is easy to remember.
