Ebastine Tablets IP 10mg Uses
Ebastine is an antihistamine used to relieve symptoms of allergic conditions such as hay fever (seasonal allergic rhinitis) and chronic urticaria (hives). It helps reduce sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and skin rashes.
How Ebastine works
Ebastine works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. It selectively blocks peripheral H1 receptors, providing relief from allergy symptoms without significant sedation.
