Overview Viokast Tablet

Aller-Ease tablets combine medications to alleviate allergic reactions. These reactions may include nasal discharge, congestion, sneezing, itching, swelling, watery eyes, and airway congestion. The medication also reduces airway inflammation, easing breathing. Aller-Ease should be taken as prescribed, with or without food, following your doctor's dosage and duration recommendations. Dosage depends on your condition and response. Continue the treatment for the entire prescribed period; premature cessation may cause symptom recurrence or worsening. Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications you are using, as interactions are possible. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, dry mouth, headache, rash, flu-like symptoms, and tiredness. Most resolve spontaneously; however, report any concerns to your doctor promptly. Dizziness and drowsiness are possible; avoid driving or activities requiring concentration until the effects are known. Alcohol should be avoided due to increased drowsiness. Self-medication and sharing medication are strongly discouraged. Increased fluid intake is advised. Disclose any kidney issues to your physician before commencing treatment.
