Vifas Tablet 60 mg contains Fexofenadine Hydrochloride, a second-generation antihistamine used to relieve symptoms associated with allergic conditions such as seasonal allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticaria. It effectively helps reduce sneezing, runny nose, itchy or watery eyes, nasal congestion, and skin itching caused by allergies. Because it is a non-sedating antihistamine, it is less likely to cause drowsiness compared to older antihistamines, making it suitable for daytime use.

Fexofenadine works by blocking histamine H1 receptors in the body. Histamine is a natural chemical released during allergic reactions that causes itching, swelling, irritation, and other allergy symptoms. By preventing histamine from attaching to its receptors, Vifas Tablet helps provide fast and long-lasting allergy relief.

Vifas Tablet 60 mg is commonly prescribed for both adults and children according to physician recommendation. It starts working relatively quickly and provides effective symptom control for up to 12 to 24 hours depending on the prescribed dose. The medicine does not significantly affect the central nervous system, which minimizes sedation and allows patients to continue normal daily activities comfortably.
