What is Fexofenadine?

Contact with plant pollen can cause allergy symptoms known as spring colds. Cells in the walls of the nose and eye cells secrete a substance called histamine. Histamine causes inflammation and runny nose, sneezing, redness, itching and tears in the eyes.
Fexofenadine is a class of antihistamines that inhibits the effects of histamine and relieves the symptoms of allergies.
Urticaria is a skin condition that is accompanied by itching and redness. These lesions can be caused by allergies or other causes. If the urticarial lesions remain on the body for more than 6 weeks, they become chronic urticaria. Fexofenadine is also very effective in relieving chronic urticaria
