Alaspan Tablet serve to alleviate symptoms of allergies such as hay fever, conjunctivitis (red, itching of the eyes), eczema, hives (urticaria), reactions to insect bites and stings, and certain food allergies. The immune system hyperreacts to normally harmless substances introduced from the external environment; these foreign substances are known as ‘allergens.’ The condition caused by allergies differs from person to person.
Loratadine is a non-drowsy antihistamine present in Alaspan Tablets. It works by reducing the effects of histamine, a natural chemical in the body. Histamine irritates the eyes, runs the nose, and has other allergic symptoms.
Uses
- Allergic rhinitis (Ex. hay fever) including sneezing, runny or itchy nose and burning or itchy eyes
- Urticaria (hives or nettle rash)
Benefits of Alaspan Tablet
