Fexofenadine HCl (generic Allegra)

We launched this blog one month ago with a little notice about Fexofenadine Hydrochloride, comparing it to Allegra. The latter, perhaps, is better known and more popular, but the point is that we often have to overpay for such popularity. In fact, Fexofenadine HCl and Allegra are the very same substances, but the brand name of Allegra is copyrighted, that is why it costs more than Fexofenadine HCl. Much more. Why pay more if you can get the same result for less money? Mylan's generic variation of Allegra, called Fexofenadine hydrochloride, relieves symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis as perfectly as Allegra made by a different manufacturer. Mylan Fexofenadine HCl pills are easily recognized by their bright blue color, though their shapes can be different (round, as in case with 30mg strength, and oblong, as in case with 180mg). In adults and children aged 12 and older, the recommended dose of Fexofenadine HCl is 180 mg once daily, or 60 mg taken twice during the day. The medication is also used to treat uncomplicated skin manifestations of chronic idiopathic urticaria in adults and children of 6 months and older.
