Product overview

About Benadryl Allergy Relief 48

The fastest-acting antihistamine you can buy, in the biggest pack: acrivastine 8mg starts working within 15 minutes on hayfever, pet, dust and skin allergies and lasts up to eight hours, so it can be taken when symptoms strike rather than every morning regardless. The 48-capsule box is the pharmacy pack, for ages 12 to 65.

Why acrivastine

Cetirizine and loratadine are once-a-day preventers; acrivastine is the responder, quick in and quick out, which suits people whose allergies come and go with the pollen count, a visit to a house with a cat, or a flare of hives. It's low-drowsy and can be repeated up to three times a day.

How to take

Adults and children over 12, up to age 65: one capsule as needed, up to three times a day, swallowed with water. Not for under-12s or over-65s. Don't exceed three capsules in 24 hours.

Good to know

Acrivastine is cleared by the kidneys, so it isn't for anyone with kidney problems or over 65. It can cause drowsiness or dizziness in some people: take care driving, and avoid alcohol. Contains lactose. Ask a pharmacist first in pregnancy or breastfeeding. Pharmacist-reviewed before dispatch.
