Fouz 180 MG Tablet 10 contains fexofenadine hydrochloride (180 mg), which performs the following actions in your body:
H1-receptor antagonist: Fexofenadine acts as a selective peripheral H1-receptor antagonist, blocking histamine receptors in your body. This means it prevents histamine, a substance naturally produced by your body that causes allergic symptoms, from exerting its effects.
Inhibits histamine release: Fexofenadine also works by inhibiting the release of histamine from mast cells located in various parts of your body, like the nasal passages. By preventing histamine release and blocking its action, allergic symptoms are significantly reduced.
Non-sedative action: Unlike some older antihistamines, fexofenadine does not readily enter the brain from the blood, which means it causes less drowsiness.
