ALLEGRA blocks a natural substance, histamine that your body makes during an allergic reaction. Fexofenadine is a selectively peripheral H1-blocker. Blockage prevents the activation of the H1 receptors by histamine, preventing the symptoms associated with allergies from occurring.

Always take ALLEGRA exactly as your doctor has directed you. Check with your doctor or if you are not sure. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
