Introduction
Histafer 30mg/5ml Syrup is usually given to children to treat a wide range of symptoms caused due to allergic conditions such as hay fever, urticaria (hives), conjunctivitis (red, itchy eye), and common cold. These symptoms include watery eyes, runny nose, sneezing, and itching among others.
Directions for Use
Try giving the medicines at the same time each day to help you remember. Your child may feel sleepy or dizzy after each dose of Histafer 30mg/5ml Syrup. If this happens, make your child sit or lie down and ask them to be careful while performing tasks that require mental focus.
How it works
Histafer 30mg/5ml Syrup belongs to a class of medicines called antihistamines. It blocks the natural chemical substance (histamine) produced in the body during an allergic state and subsides (lowers) your child’s immune system’s response to these conditions.
