Without Sedation1

What do you mean "Non-Sedative?2

Let's be clear: Sedation is everything when it comes to antihistamines. The one that offers non-sedative allergy symptom relief, that's the one you need to take seriously. Picture this: non-sedative relief means staying on point during that big meeting, keeping your plans intact, and no dozing off halfway through the day, all while tackling allergy symptoms.3

Sounds like a dream come true for anyone battling allergies, right?

Achieving Clear Brain Function Without Sedation

The science behind non-drowsy relief since 1996.4

Telfast® first approved in 1996, offers efficacy that is similar to that of second-generation antihistamines without the risk of blocking cardiac delayed rectifier potassium currents.

Telfast® does not cross the blood-brain barrier and is poorly lipid-soluble. Telfast® is a non-sedating oral antihistamine.Telfast®'s active ingredient, fexofenadine, was engineered specifically to remain outside the centralnervous system.4This innovation allows it to work directly on allergy symptoms without affecting your brain. As aresult, Telfast® offers effective symptom relief that keeps you alert and ready to live life fully.1
