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.

Frequently asked questions
Why is the 48 pack pharmacy-only?
The 12 and 24 packs are general sale; the 48 is a pharmacy pack so a pharmacist checks the questionnaire, particularly age and kidney health.
Is it non-drowsy?
Low-drowsy — most people feel nothing, but a minority do get sleepy or dizzy. See how it affects you before driving.
Why not over 65?
Acrivastine is removed by the kidneys, which slow with age, and it hasn't been studied in older adults. Cetirizine or loratadine are the alternatives.
