Fexy 120 Tablet

Fexy 120 Tablet is a prescription allergy medicine that contains fexofenadine hydrochloride 120 mg in each tablet. It belongs to the second-generation antihistamine class and is used to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, and itching. Fexy 120 Tablet can also help reduce hives and itching in people with chronic urticaria when a doctor recommends it. This tablet is a non-drowsy-style antihistamine for many people, but individual reactions can vary.

How it works: Fexofenadine blocks histamine, a natural chemical your body releases during allergic reactions that causes sneezing, itching, and a runny nose. As a tablet, Fexy 120 Tablet is swallowed whole and absorbed through the stomach and intestines to help control allergy symptoms.

Fexy 120 Tablet is a higher-strength tablet compared with lower-dose fexofenadine options, so it is usually chosen for adults or older adolescents who need stronger symptom control and have been assessed by a clinician. Because it is an immediate-release tablet, it is meant to start working within the day rather than acting like a long-acting or specialty form, and it may be preferred when a doctor wants a once- or twice-daily tablet option. For people who only need milder allergy relief, a lower strength may be enough; this 120 mg tablet is selected when that stronger dose is appropriate.

• Seasonal allergic rhinitis
• Sneezing and runny nose
