Description
Allerwood 10mg Tablet is an effective antihistamine used to alleviate the discomfort caused by various allergic reactions. Containing Loratadine, a non-sedating antihistamine, Allerwood helps relieve symptoms of seasonal and perennial rhinitis, such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. It is also effective for treating chronic urticaria (hives), reducing skin rashes and irritation. The tablet form makes it easy to take, providing reliable relief from allergy symptoms without causing excessive drowsiness, making it suitable for daily use.
Functions
- Relieves Allergic Symptoms: Allerwood 10mg tablet helps manage allergy-related conditions like allergic rhinitis (inflammation of the nose) and chronic hives (skin rashes of unknown cause).
- Non-Sedating: Unlike many first-generation antihistamines, Loratadine in Allerwood does not typically cause drowsiness, allowing you to carry on with your daily activities without disruption.
- Improves Quality of Life: By easing allergy symptoms, Allerwood improves comfort and quality of life for those suffering from ongoing or seasonal allergies.
Precautions
- Liver Impairment: Use with caution in patients with severe liver problems, as the medication may be metabolized differently.
- Pregnancy and Lactation: Allerwood is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Always consult your healthcare provider before using this medication.
- Avoid Alcohol: Alcohol can enhance the sedative effects of antihistamines. It is best to avoid drinking alcohol while taking Allerwood to prevent unwanted side effects.
- Consult with a Doctor: If you are on other medications or have any health conditions, such as heart disease, consult your doctor to avoid potential interactions.
Side Effects
While Allerwood is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects, including:
- Somnolence: Some people may feel drowsy or excessively tired after taking this medication.
- Anxiety: A sense of unease or anxiety is rare but possible.
- Fatigue, Nausea, and Headaches: In rare cases, users may experience fatigue, nausea, or headaches.
If you notice any severe reactions such as difficulty breathing, rapid heartbeat, or dizziness, seek immediate medical help.
Cautions
- Driving and Operating Machinery: Although less sedating than other antihistamines, you should still exercise caution when driving or operating heavy machinery after taking Allerwood, as it may cause mild drowsiness in some people.
- Heart Issues: If you experience a rapid or irregular heartbeat, contact your doctor right away.
- Allergic Reactions: Do not use Allerwood if you are allergic to Loratadine or any of its ingredients.
- Dosage Compliance: Always follow the prescribed dosage and do not exceed the recommended daily dose. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is almost time for your next dose.
