Histabil 40 Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Histabil 40 Tablet 10 contains one active ingredient: bilastine (40 mg). Here's how this component works:

• Histamine H1 Receptor Antagonism: Bilastine acts as an antagonist to the histamine H1 receptor in your body. By binding to these receptors, bilastine inhibits histamine, a chemical messenger released during allergic reactions.
• Reduction of Allergic Symptoms: Blocking the action of histamine prevents the activation of H1 receptors on cells in your nose, eyes, skin, and blood vessels. This action reduces inflammation and itching associated with allergies.
• Non-sedative Effect: Unlike some antihistamines, bilastine does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier. This means it minimises sedative effects often associated with allergy medications, allowing you to continue your daily activities without feeling drowsy.

• Store Histabil 40 Tablet 10 at room temperature, ideally between 15-30°C.
• Protect the medicine from light and moisture to maintain its efficacy.
• Keep this medicine out of the reach of children for their safety.

• If you are managing allergic rhinitis with this tablet, try to avoid allergens like pollen, dust mites, or pet dander in your environment. Regular vacuuming and air filtering can help minimise exposure.
• For those using this tablet for chronic hives, it is beneficial to avoid known triggers such as certain foods or medicines. Keep a diary of food intake and outbreaks to identify possible correlations.
