Indications & Clinical Uses

Histallay is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of several allergic conditions.

  • Seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever)
  • Perennial allergic rhinitis
  • Chronic idiopathic urticaria (hives)
  • Eye itching and watering caused by allergic reactions
  • Nasal congestion and sneezing associated with allergy exposure

How It Works

  • Fexofenadine hydrochloride acts as a selective peripheral H1‑receptor antagonist. By binding to the histamine H1 receptors on mast cells, basophils, and other target tissues, it prevents histamine from triggering the intracellular signaling cascade that leads to vasodilation, increased vascular permeability, and sensory nerve activation. Because it does not readily cross the blood‑brain barrier, central nervous system effects are minimal, allowing symptom relief without sedation.

Side Effects

Like all medications, Histallay may cause unwanted effects, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common

  • Headache
  • Dry mouth
  • Nausea
  • Fatigue

Serious

  • Rare cardiac arrhythmia
  • Severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis)
  • Elevated liver enzymes
