Indications
Fexo 180 is a member of the class of drugs known as antihistamines. It is employed in the treatment of a number of allergic diseases, including hay fever, conjunctivitis, and some skin reactions like eczema, hives, and reactions to bites and stings. Additionally, it stops itching, sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes.
Pharmacology
An antihistamine with specific peripheral H,-receptor antagonist action is fexofenadine hydrochloride. After oral administration, fexofenadine is rapidly absorbed, and peak plasma concentrations are attained in 2–3 hours. About 60 to 100of it is bound to plasma proteins. Only 0.5 to 1.57% of the total dosages are biotransformed by the cytochrome P456 system in the liver, with the majority of the remaining 50% being metabolized by the intestinal mucosa. The elimination half-life of 14 hours has been recorded, while patients with renal impairment may experience a longer half-life. Only 100% being is excreted in the urine; the majority is excreted in the feces. The blood-brain barrier does not appear to be crossed by fexofenadine.
