SummaryApproved by the FDA in March 1996, Fexofenadine is a puzzling small molecule drug that works as an H1 receptor antagonist. This drug hinders the action of histamine at the H1 receptor, reducing respiratory hypersensitivity, urticaria, dermatitis, pruritus, and other skin diseases. Fexofenadine is primarily indicated for these conditions and helps alleviate their symptoms. Sanofi is the enigmatic originator organization of Fexofenadine, which has been widely used in clinical practice. Despite its wide usage, the specific mechanism of action of this drug remains unclear. Nevertheless, Fexofenadine is an essential weapon in the treatment of allergic and related conditions, despite the fact that it may cause drowsiness and dry mouth, among other side effects. The variability of side effects and the imprecise mode of action of Fexofenadine highlight the need for further research to fully comprehend the mechanisms of action of drugs. |
