Telfast Allergy 120mg Fexofenadine Tablets 30 Pack

How to Take Telfast Allergy

For the best results, always take this medicine exactly as described in the leaflet or as your doctor or pharmacist has told you.

• Adults and Children (12+ years): The recommended dose is one tablet (120 mg) daily.
• Administration: Take your tablet with a drink of water.
• Consistency: If you stop taking Telfast Allergy earlier than planned, your symptoms may return.
• Important Timing: If you take an indigestion remedy containing aluminium or magnesium, leave about 2 hours between taking that and your Telfast Allergy tablet, as it can reduce the amount of medicine absorbed by your body.
