Frequently asked questions
Is Lejet Syrup a steroid? What is it used for?
No, Lejet Syrup is not a steroid. It is an antihistamine medication designed to relieve allergy symptoms. It works by reducing the effects of histamine, a chemical your body releases during allergic reactions, leading to relief from runny nose, sneezing, redness, itching and watering of eyes caused by hay fever or seasonal allergies. It also relieves similar symptoms caused by allergies to substances such as dust mites, animal dander, and mold. It is helpful in treating symptoms of hives, including itching and rash.
Does Lejet Syrup make you tired and drowsy?
Yes, Lejet Syrup can cause fatigue, drowsiness, and weakness. If you experience these effects, avoid driving or operating machinery. Consult your doctor for further guidance if you are unsure.
How long does it take for Lejet Syrup to work?
Lejet Syrup begins working within an hour of taking it, but full benefits may take slightly longer to manifest.
Can I take Lejet Syrup and Fexofenadine together?
Sometimes a doctor might advise you to use two different antihistamines simultaneously when treating a severe allergic rash. If you're taking Lejet Syrup during the daytime, your doctor may prescribe another antihistamine at night to address potential sleepiness, particularly if the itching makes it difficult to sleep.
Is it safe to take Lejet Syrup for a long time?
Lejet Syrup is considered safe when used as prescribed by your doctor. It is unlikely to cause harm if taken for an extended period, but it's generally best to use it only as needed.
For how long should I continue Lejet Syrup?
The duration of taking Lejet Syrup depends on the specific condition being treated. For example, if you are using it for an insect bite, you may need it for one to two days. However, if you're treating chronic allergic rhinitis (inflammation of the nose) or chronic urticaria, your doctor may recommend continuing the medication for a longer period.
