Fexofenadine is a non-sedating antihistamine which provides relief from the unpleasant symptoms of hay fever. It is also available under the brand name Telfast. Fexofenadine gets to work within an hour of taking it to block histamine and prevent symptoms of hay fever developing while you go about your daily life.
During the hay fever season, which spans from spring to late summer, plants release particles called pollen. Some plants rely on insects such as bees to distribute pollen, while others rely on the wind to reproduce (anemophily plants, which translates to "Wind-loving").
Throughout the hay fever season, there are different types of pollen. People with hay fever may experience a reaction from one or more of these pollens. What's more is that these different pollens are present at different times of the year. For example, grass pollen peaks between June and July.
Common types of pollen which cause hay fever include:
When you inhale these tiny particles, your body mistakes it for a threat like bacteria or a virus. Your immune system kicks into action and releases a chemical called histamine.
This chemical, histamine, is the main chemical responsible for the unpleasant symptoms of hay fever, such as a runny nose, itching, sneezing and watering eyes. These symptoms are your bodies attempt of ridding the foreign body from your system.
Aside to treating hay fever, Fexofenadine is used to treat a range of allergies and can be used to reduce the signs of urticaria (hives).
Sometimes, getting to the pharmacy to renew your prescription is just not feasible. With Prescription Doctor, our online doctor can issue a prescription of Fexofenadine online for our registered UK pharmacy to fulfil. If your order is approved before 3pm Monday to Friday, our pharmacy will dispatched your item the same day via a next-day delivery service.
Fexofenadine counteracts the histamine in your body by blocking histamine receptors in your body.
When histamine binds to histamine receptors in the body, the symptoms synonymous with hay fever begin to develop.
By blocking the histamine receptors, histamine cannot bind and so the effects of histamine are prevented.
The typical dose of Fexofenadine is one tablet daily.
You should swallow Fexofenadine tablets whole with a glass of water. It's best to take Fexofenadine tablets at the same time every day. If you forget to take medicine when you should, set a reminder on your phone or smart home device.
Do not drink grapefruit juice, apple juice or orange juice while taking Fexofenadine as they may increase your risk of side effects.
If you are unsure how to take Fexofenadine, speak to your doctor or ask a pharmacist for advice.

Always store your medicine out of sight and reach from children and pets.
Never share your medicine with anybody else, even if they are experiencing the same symptoms or have the same condition as you.
If you forget to take Fexofenadine when you should, do not take more to make up for the missed dose. Skip the missed dose and take your next dose of Fexofenadine at the usual time.
If you accidentally take more Fexofenadine than you should, speak to your doctor or go straight to your nearest casualty department. Signs of an overdose include dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue and dry mouth.
