Warnings
The efficacy and safety of fexofenadine hydrochloride has not been studied in children under 12.
As with many newly introduced medicines, information on the use of fexofenadine hydrochloride in older adults and individuals with liver or kidney impairment remains limited. In such cases, treatment should only be started following medical advice.
People with existing or past heart conditions should be advised that antihistamines as a group have been linked to side effects such as increased heart rate and palpitations. Fexofenadine hydrochloride should therefore only be used under a doctor’s guidance.
Histahive 180 mg Film-Coated Tablets also contain Allura Red AC Lake, a colouring agent that may trigger allergic responses in some individuals.
It should not be used in pregnant or breastfeeding women.
