Stops itching at the source.
Fexofenadine is an antihistamine that can help relieve your eczema symptoms. Simply take one tablet a day to calm your immune system and relieve itching.
To order Fexofenadine online, answer a few questions about your health and we’ll recommend a list of treatment options that you can choose from.
Fexofenadine is an antihistamine that can help reduce the symptoms of severe eczema, like itching. Antihistamines aren’t typically a primary treatment for eczema, but they can be prescribed off-label to relieve symptoms caused by histamine – a chemical that causes a range of allergy symptoms.
Eczema is typically treated with steroids, which help relieve itching and inflammation. And depending on your condition's severity, your steroid's strength will differ. For severe eczema, you’ll likely use potent topical steroids, like Dermovate, or oral steroids, like prednisolone, if topical steroids aren’t enough. Antihistamines are typically only prescribed if you’re finding it hard to deal with itching and flare-ups during your recovery period.
Histamine, a natural substance that’s released in response to allergens, triggers symptoms like sneezing, itching and teary eyes. To prevent this from happening, fexofenadine binds to histamine receptors to block histamine from causing these symptoms.
Fexofenadine is a second-generation antihistamine, so there's a reduced likelihood of it causing drowsiness and headaches.
There are three doses of Fexofenadine: 30mg, 120mg and 180mg. The usual dose for adults is 120 mg once a day. If there isn't much improvement with 120mg, your clinician can increase it to 180 mg.
How we source info.
When we present you with stats, data, opinion or a consensus, we’ll tell you where this came from. And we’ll only present data as clinically reliable if it’s come from a reputable source, such as a state or government-funded health body, a peer-reviewed medical journal, or a recognised analytics or data body. Read more in our editorial policy.
Take one tablet of Fexofenadine a day with water, before a meal. Taking it with food might delay absorption, so you may not feel the effects for a few hours.
Fexofenadine tends to start working within an hour, reaching peak concentration by hour two. The effects should last 24 hours, so one tablet should be enough for the entire day.
Fexofenadine should only be stopped after your doctor has given you the okay. This is because stopping too early might make your symptoms return.
If you accidentally take more Fexofenadine than needed, you should go to the nearest hospital immediately. You might get symptoms of overdose, such as dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue and dry mouth.
If you forget to take a dose, skip the missed dose and take the next dose as scheduled. Don’t take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
