Winal Tablet

Winal Tablet contains Desloratadine (5mg), a potent second-generation antihistamine used for the treatment of allergic conditions. It provides relief from symptoms associated with hay fever, allergic rhinitis, and urticaria (hives). Winal Tablet is designed to reduce the body's response to allergens without causing sedation or drowsiness.

Uses of Winal Tablet

Winal Tablet is commonly prescribed to treat the following conditions:

• Allergic Rhinitis: Alleviates symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, and itchy or watery eyes caused by environmental allergens such as pollen, dust, and pet dander.
• Urticaria (Hives): Relieves itching, swelling, and redness associated with chronic hives (urticaria) and other allergic skin reactions.
• Seasonal and Perennial Allergies: Provides effective management of both seasonal and year-round allergy symptoms.

How Winal Tablet Works

Winal Tablet works by blocking histamine receptors in the body, particularly the H1 receptors that are responsible for triggering allergic reactions. Histamine is released during allergic reactions and is responsible for symptoms such as itching, swelling, and redness. By inhibiting histamine, Desloratadine reduces the intensity of allergic responses, providing relief from symptoms.

• Fast Action: Winal Tablet begins to show effects within a few hours of consumption, helping to quickly alleviate discomfort caused by allergic reactions.
