Fexofenadine Hydrochloride is used to treat seasonal allergic rhinitis symptoms in both adults and children. It's also used to treat mild cutaneous symptoms of chronic idiopathic urticaria.
Pharmacology
Fexofenadine Hydrochloride is an antihistamine that works by blocking peripheral H1 receptors. After oral administration, it is rapidly absorbed and reaches maximal plasma concentration in 2-3 hours. It doesn't appear to be able to pass through the blood-brain barrier.
