Fexofenadine (30mg/5ml)
Histafree Suspension Raspberry & Vanilla is an anti-allergic oral liquid formulation designed especially for children. It contains Fexofenadine Hydrochloride (30mg per 5ml), a second-generation antihistamine that helps in the effective management of various allergic conditions without causing significant drowsiness.
This suspension is commonly prescribed for children to relieve symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, skin rashes, and hives caused by seasonal allergies, allergic rhinitis, or urticaria (hives).
Histafree Suspension should be administered orally using a measuring spoon or dropper, as advised by your child’s doctor. It can be given with or without food, depending on what suits your child best. Follow the prescribed dosage schedule carefully to ensure consistent effectiveness.
In milder allergic cases, you may begin to see improvement in your child’s symptoms within the first few doses. However, in more persistent or severe allergic conditions, the doctor may advise continuing the medicine for a week or more.
If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking a dose, allow them to rest and then re-administer the same dose. But if the next scheduled dose is due soon, skip the repeated dose and resume the regular dosing schedule.
Histafree Suspension Raspberry & Vanilla does not pose serious side effects and is well-tolerated by children. In case the side effects do occur, they’re likely to subside once the body adapts to the medicine. Consult your child’s doctor if these side effects persist or bother your child.
