Viral rhinitis medicine is a rhinitis medicine used to treat the so-called "nasal cold". Use this medicine when you have symptoms of runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, and viral or bacterial infections.

Twice a day is fine, so I'm glad you don't have to worry about forgetting to take your meds during the day when you're busy with work or housework.

Unlike viral rhinitis medicines, fexofenadine won't make you drowsy or dry your mouth easily, so you can stop your runny nose, stuffy nose, and sneezing without losing focus .

You can drink when you are hungry, so you can drink even if you don't have time to eat in the busy morning. You can drink it as soon as you feel a stuffy nose.

This is a Japanese rhinitis medicine recommended for allergic rhinitis patients who have been suffering from the side effects of viral rhinitis medicines.


Japanese allergic rhinitis drug "Alesion", once a day for 24 hours

Alesion is an allergic rhinitis medicine that contains epinastine hydrochloride, a second generation antihistamine.

The difference from the same allergic rhinitis drug "Allegra" introduced earlier is the dose. Alesion works once a day for 24 hours. If you take it before going to bed, the effect will last until the next night, so you don’t need to take medicine when you go out.

However, even though epinastine is a second-generation antihistamine ingredient, it may cause drowsiness and dry mouth, so please do not drive.

You can also drink it on an empty stomach like Allegra.

When it comes to

Includes maximum antihistamines to suppress runny nose. Moreover, since the contents of the capsule are liquefied, the active ingredients dissolve quickly and work, which is very suitable for those who want to stop their runny nose immediately!

However, antihistamines may have side effects such as drowsiness and dry mouth, so when you need to do some delicate work or need to concentrate, especially when driving, we still don't do it up.

"Stonarini S" is a viral rhinitis medicine once or twice a day.

Stonalini S contains the following three active ingredients.

Chlorpheniramine maleate is an antihistamine that relieves nasal congestion and runny nose, and the vasoconstrictor phenylephrine hydrochloride relieves nasal congestion.

Datura extract can calm the parasympathetic nerves and suppress sneezing, runny nose and nasal congestion.

The biggest feature is that the tablet has a double structure, so these ingredients have a time lag.

Since it has a dual structure of an outer layer that dissolves in the stomach and an inner core that dissolves in the intestines, it has a long-lasting effect even if it is not taken regularly.
