Bilert-40 Tablet

Bilert-40 Tablet Overview

Bilert-40 Tablet is an anti-allergic medication used to manage a variety of allergic reactions such as nasal congestion, runny or itchy nose, watery or red eyes, and skin irritation. Allergies occur when the immune system reacts to harmless substances called allergens. These allergens can vary from person to person and may include dust, pollen, pet dander, certain foods, or seasonal triggers like hay fever.

This tablet contains bilastine, an antihistamine that works by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical responsible for causing allergic symptoms. By doing so, it provides relief from discomfort and irritation caused by allergic conditions such as sneezing, nasal blockage, and itchy or watery eyes.

It should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The duration of treatment depends on your condition and how well you respond to the medicine. Some people may experience mild side effects like headache, dizziness, stomach discomfort, dry mouth, sore throat, nausea, or cold-like symptoms (especially in children). These effects are usually temporary and go away on their own, but if they persist or worsen, you should consult a healthcare professional.

This medicine is not suitable for everyone. Avoid using Bilert-40 Tablet if you are allergic to bilastine, breastfeeding, have severe kidney problems (creatinine clearance below 10 ml/min), difficulty in passing urine, or fructose intolerance. It is also not recommended for children under 12 years of age. Additionally, inform your doctor if you are taking medications like midodrine (for low blood pressure) or ritonavir (for HIV).
