Allegra and Allegra D are antihistamines formulated with fexofenadine, a non-sedating histamine H1 antagonist that helps to relieve allergy symptoms. Allegra D also contains pseudoephedrine, a decongestant that can help to relieve blocked noses associated with allergies.
The Allegra family of products provides relief from both indoor and outdoor allergies in a non-drowsy formulation. Whether you have a runny nose, itchy, watery eyes or itchy nose or throat, Allegra and Allegra D can help, allowing you to get on with life.
More than 40 million individuals suffer from seasonal allergies in North America. Allergies are caused when your body overreacts to substances named allergens. Allergens are often referred to as triggers. Although they are usually harmless, in certain susceptible individuals they can initiate a process by your immune system leading to the release of chemicals called histamines. Histamines are your body’s defence against foreign invaders (allergens). When too much is released, it can lead to nasal congestion, sneezing, itchy and watery eyes. If an allergic reaction is very severe, it may result in difficulty breathing or even an asthma attack.
Food, dust mites, animal dander, and pollen are the most common allergens and result in hay fever and asthma, as well as other allergic reactions.
While many antihistamines are known to cause sleepiness, Allegra and Allegra D work without making you drowsy.
