Benzz 180

Benzz 180 contains Fexofenadine Hydrochloride 180 mg, a non-drowsy antihistamine used to relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and chronic idiopathic urticaria (hives). It works by blocking the action of histamine, a natural substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and skin rashes.

Compared to older antihistamines, Fexofenadine offers effective symptom control with minimal sedative effects, making it suitable for people who need to stay alert, such as students, workers, or drivers.

✅ Chronic Urticaria (Hives) — Reduces itching, redness, and swelling in chronic skin allergies.
✅ Skin Allergies — Sometimes used off-label to manage mild allergic skin reactions.

How Benzz 180 Works

Fexofenadine, the active ingredient in Benzz 180, is a selective histamine H1-receptor antagonist. By blocking histamine at peripheral H1-receptors, it prevents histamine-mediated allergic responses in the nose, skin, and eyes. Unlike older antihistamines, Fexofenadine does not cross the blood-brain barrier significantly, which explains its minimal sedative effect.

Dosage & Administration

• Usual Dose (Adults and Children 12+): One 180 mg tablet once daily.

• Route: Taken orally with water.

• With or Without Food: Best taken on an empty stomach; avoid fruit juices as they may reduce absorption.
