FAQs

Pexo Paediatric Suspension is used to treat allergic conditions such as hay fever (an allergy caused by pollen or dust), conjunctivitis (red, itchy eye), eczema (dermatitis), hives (red, raised patches or dots), reactions to insect bites and stings and some food allergies.

Pexo Paediatric Suspension contains fexofenadine (anti-histamine), which is used to treat allergies as it blocks the effects of a chemical messenger known as ‘histamine,’ which is naturally involved in allergic reactions.

Hay fever is an allergy caused due to outdoor or indoor allergens, such as pollen, dust mites, or tiny flecks of skin and saliva shed by cats, dogs, and other animals with fur or feathers (pet dander). It leads to cold-like symptoms (running nose, watery eyes).

Pexo Paediatric Suspension is known as a non-drowsy antihistamine. It's less likely to make your child sleepy than some other antihistamines; however, in some people, it may cause sleepiness and induce drowsiness during the day. Hence, you are recommended to give it in the nighttime in case you are noticing excessive drowsiness in the child during the day.

Depending upon the severity of allergic conditions due to allergens, Pexo Paediatric Suspension can be safely given daily until your child gets complete relief and as long as your doctor has advised to use it.

While using Pexo Paediatric Suspension , avoid feeding grapefruit, orange, or apple juice. It may increase the risk of side effects.
