Mizolastine

Mizollen is an antihistamine medication that is used to help treat common symptoms of hay fever, urticaria, and other allergic reactions that cause irritation of the eyes and nose. It contains the active ingredient Mizolastine.

Mizollen is an antihistamine medication. Antihistamine medications help to relieve the symptoms of allergic reactions including sneezing, watery eyes and runny noses. Antihistamines block the action of histamine, a chemical released by the body during allergic reactions.

To ensure your medication is working for you, you should make sure to follow the instructions given to you by your healthcare provider. Usually, you will take one tablet a day, taken with plenty of water. 

You should always use your Mizollen as you have been directed to by a healthcare provider. The usual daily dose for adults, the elderly, and children aged over 12 years will be one tablet taken daily.

Mizollen is suitable for adults, the elderly, and children over the age of 12 who need relief from the symptoms of allergic reactions.
