Rupatadine treats allergic rhinitis and chronic hives. It belongs to the Antihistamine (extra) group. More antihistamines for allergy symptoms, mostly low-drowsiness.
Not a prescription — no dose shown. The right dose of rupatadine depends on age, weight, kidney/liver function and the condition, so MedDroid does not show a dose here. Always get your dose from a doctor or pharmacist and the leaflet inside the pack. General educational information only.
Frequently asked questions
Which allergy tablet is least drowsy?
Newer ones like fexofenadine, bilastine, ebastine and rupatadine tend to be the least sedating.
Can I switch between antihistamines?
Yes — if one does not suit you, another may work better with fewer side effects. Ask a pharmacist.
