Fexofenadine Hydrochloride Capsules
Function and Efficacy
Pharmacological action: Fexofenadine hydrochloride is an antihistamine with selective peripheral H1 receptor antagonism. Fexofenadine inhibits the release of histamine from peritoneal mast cells in rats. In experimental animals, no anticholinergic, α1-adrenergic or β-adrenergic receptor blocking effects were observed, nor were sedation or other central nervous system effects observed. This product cannot pass the blood-brain barrier. Toxicological studies: Effect on QTc: Dogs were given fexofenadine hydrochloride orally twice a day at a dose of 30 mg/kg (the concentration of the original drug in plasma was equivalent to 9 times the maximum recommended adult oral dose), and rabbits were given an intravenous injection of 10 mg/kg (the concentration in plasma was equivalent to 20 times the maximum recommended adult oral dose). No QTc prolongation occurred after 1 hour of administration. Effect on calcium channel flow

Adverse Reactions
Seasonal allergic rhinitis In a placebo-controlled clinical trial of seasonal allergic rhinitis, 2461 patients aged 12 years and older were treated with fexofenadine hydrochloride 20 mg to 240 mg twice a day. The adverse reactions of fexofenadine hydrochloride were similar to those of placebo. In a placebo-controlled clinical trial of seasonal allergic rhinitis, 570 patients aged 12 years and older were treated with fexofenadine hydrochloride 120 mg or 180 mg once a day. The adverse reactions of fexofenadine hydrochloride were similar to those of placebo. The above studies show that the incidence of adverse reactions, including drowsiness, is not dose-related and is similar among various age, gender, and racial groups. 60 mg, twice a day, orally

Drug Interactions
Although fexofenadine hydrochloride exhibits a low liver metabolism rate (approximately 5%), it can lead to increased plasma concentrations of fexofenadine hydrochloride when used in combination with erythromycin or ketoconazole. Fexofenadine hydrochloride has no effect on the pharmacokinetics of erythromycin and ketoconazole. In separate studies of fexofenadine hydrochloride in combination with erythromycin or ketoconazole, healthy volunteers (n=24 in each study) took fexofenadine hydrochloride 120 mg twice a day (twice the recommended twice a day dose) with erythromycin 500 mg every 8 hours or ketoconazole 400 mg once a day. The results showed that there was no difference in side effects or QTc intervals between patients taking fexofenadine hydrochloride alone or in combination with erythromycin or ketoconazole. The results of these studies are summarized in the following table:
