Fexofenadine is a type of antihistamine used to treat symptoms of allergic rhinitis, such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. It is also used to treat chronic idiopathic urticaria, a type of hives. Fexofenadine is a second-generation antihistamine, meaning it is less likely to cause drowsiness than first-generation antihistamines. It works by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical released by the body during an allergic reaction. Fexofenadine is a popular choice for treating immune disorders, as it is effective and has fewer side effects than other antihistamines. It is available in both over-the-counter and prescription forms. It is often used in combination with other medications to treat more severe symptoms. Fexofenadine is available from a variety of pharmaceutical companies, including Sanofi, Mylan, and Teva Pharmaceuticals. It is also available in generic forms from many generic drug manufacturers.
