Provent Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Provent Tablet 10 contains a single active ingredient: Levocetirizine (5 mg). Here's how it works in the body:

• Blockage of Histamine H1 Receptors: Levocetirizine works selectively by blocking these receptors in the body. Histamine is a chemical that your immune system releases during an allergic reaction. It causes symptoms like itching, sneezing, runny nose and hives.
• Relief from Allergic Symptoms: Levocetirizine efficiently manages allergic symptoms by obstructing the action of histamine on H1 receptors.

• If you're managing allergic conditions with Provent Tablet 10, try to identify and avoid foods or environmental factors that trigger your allergies. This can include certain types of food, dust, pollen, or pet dander.
• Regular exercise can help boost your immune system and potentially reduce the frequency and severity of allergic reactions. However, do consult your doctor about suitable exercises for you.
