Allertin Tablet 20 mg contains Bilastine, a second-generation antihistamine used for the effective relief of allergic conditions such as allergic rhinitis and urticaria (hives). It is known for its non-sedating properties, making it suitable for individuals who need to remain alert during daily activities.

Bilastine works by selectively blocking peripheral histamine H1 receptors, which are responsible for the symptoms of allergic reactions. By inhibiting the action of histamine, Allertin Tablet helps reduce symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, itchy or watery eyes, and skin rashes.

This medication provides long-lasting relief and is generally well tolerated, with minimal penetration into the central nervous system, thus reducing the risk of drowsiness compared to first-generation antihistamines.
