Bilahist Tablet 20 mg contains Bilastine 20 mg, a second-generation antihistamine used for the treatment of allergic conditions. It provides effective relief from symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, itching, and watery eyes, commonly associated with seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis. Bilahist is also indicated for the treatment of chronic urticaria, where it helps reduce hives, itching, and skin swelling.

Unlike first-generation antihistamines, Bilastine is non-sedating, allowing patients to maintain normal daily activities without drowsiness. Its rapid onset of action and long-lasting effects make it suitable for once-daily dosing, offering convenience and consistent symptom control. Bilahist is well-tolerated and can be used in adults and adolescents.

Composition

• Bilastine 20 mg

Mechanism of Action

Bilastine is a selective H1 receptor antagonist that works by:
