Overview Lectra Tablet

Allergin, an antihistamine, effectively manages diverse allergic reactions including hay fever, conjunctivitis, eczema, urticaria, and insect bite/sting responses. It alleviates symptoms like watery eyes, nasal discharge, sneezing, and itching. Allergin can be administered with or without food; dosage varies based on the specific condition. Typically taken evenings, dosage and frequency should adhere to your physician's instructions. Intermittent use is acceptable for symptom management, but regular use is advised for preventative purposes. Discontinuing or missing doses may result in symptom recurrence. Mild side effects, such as drowsiness, dry mouth, tiredness, fever, cough, upper respiratory infection, and epistaxis, may occur initially but usually resolve within days. Persistent or concerning side effects warrant medical consultation. Prior to use, inform your doctor of any kidney issues or epilepsy; dosage adjustments may be necessary. Drug interactions are possible; disclose all current medications to your healthcare provider. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their doctor before using Allergin, though it's generally considered safe.
