How Bilan Tablet works
Bilan Tablet 20 mg works by blocking histamine receptors in the body. Histamine is released when the immune system encounters allergens like pollen or pet dander. It causes symptoms such as itching, sneezing, and watery eyes. By preventing histamine from attaching to its receptors, Bilan stops these allergy symptoms from developing. The tablet starts working within 1 to 2 hours after taking it and its effects last up to 24 hours. It is rapidly absorbed in the body and eliminated through liver metabolism and kidney excretion.
Adults and adolescents typically take one 20 mg tablet daily on an empty stomach to get the best results. Children between 6 and 11 years take a 10 mg mouth-dissolving tablet, while younger children may receive adjusted doses. It is important to follow the doctor’s instructions and avoid exceeding the recommended dose. If a dose is missed, do not double the next one; simply continue as scheduled.
