3. Who can and cannot take fexofenadine
Fexofenadine tablets can be taken by adults under the age of 65 and children aged 6 years and over.
Fexofenadine isn't recommended for people over 65 years old because there isn't much research on the medicine in this age group.
Talk to your pharmacist or doctor if you're over 65 and want to take fexofenadine.
Fexofenadine isn't suitable for some people. Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you:
- have had an allergic reaction to fexofenadine or any other medicines in the past
- have problems with your liver or kidneys
- have, or have ever had, heart problems
- have epilepsy or another health problem that puts you at risk of seizures
- are booked to have an allergy test - taking fexofenadine may affect the results, so you might need to stop taking it a few days before the test
4. How and when to take it
If you or your child have been prescribed fexofenadine, follow your doctor's instructions about how and when to take it.
How much to take
Fexofenadine comes as tablets (30mg, 120mg and 180mg).
How much you take depends on why you're taking it:
- For hay fever - the usual dose for adults and children aged 12 years and over is 120mg once a day. The usual dose for children aged 6 to 11 years is 30mg twice a day. In this case, try to space the doses 10 to 12 hours apart.
- For hives - the usual dose for adults and children aged 12 years and over is 180mg once a day.
How to take it
If you're taking 30mg fexofenadine tablets, you can take them with or without food.
If you're taking 120mg and 180mg fexofenadine tablets, take them before a meal.
Always take your fexofenadine tablets with a drink of water. Swallow them whole - do not chew them.
When to take it
You may only need to take fexofenadine on a day you have symptoms, such as if you have been exposed to something you're allergic to, like animal hair.
Or you may need to take it regularly to prevent symptoms, such as to stop hay fever during spring and summer.
