BISALATIN 20

BISALATIN 20 contains Bilastine 20 mg, a second-generation non-sedating antihistamine used to treat a variety of allergic conditions. Manufactured with high-quality standards by Steris Healthcare, BISALATIN 20 provides fast and sustained relief from seasonal allergies, hayfever, and chronic urticaria without causing drowsiness. This tablet is an ideal solution for individuals seeking allergy relief with minimal interference in daily life.

What is BISALATIN 20?

BISALATIN 20 is a prescription medication that belongs to the class of H1-antihistamines. It works by blocking the action of histamine—a substance produced by the body during an allergic reaction. Bilastine does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier, which means it rarely causes sleepiness or sedation, unlike traditional antihistamines. This makes it suitable for people who need to remain alert during the day.

Uses of Bilastine Tablet

BISALATIN 20 is used for the treatment of:

• Allergic rhinitis (seasonal or perennial), including symptoms like sneezing, runny or blocked nose, itchy throat, and red, watery eyes

• Chronic idiopathic urticaria (long-term hives), which involves skin rashes, itching, and swelling

• Relief from symptoms of hayfever including sneezing, itchy, runny, blocked-up nose and red and watery eyes

• Other forms of respiratory or skin allergies triggered by environmental allergens like dust mites, pollen, pet dander, or mold

How Bilastine Works

Bilastine 20 mg works by selectively blocking H1 receptors in the body. Histamine, a chemical responsible for allergic symptoms, binds to these receptors and triggers inflammation, itching, and mucus production. By inhibiting this interaction, bilastine reduces allergic responses without affecting alertness or cognitive functions.

Side Effects of Bilastine Tablets

Although BISALATIN 20 is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience mild side effects such as:

• Headache

• Dizziness

• Stomach pain or discomfort

• Nausea

• Dry mouth

• Tiredness or fatigue (rare)
  Severe side effects are rare but may include swelling of the face/lips or difficulty breathing, which requires immediate medical attention.

Precautions Before Using BISALATIN 20

Before starting BISALATIN 20, inform your healthcare provider if:

• You have kidney impairment or any chronic health condition

• You are pregnant or breastfeeding

• You are taking any medications, including herbal supplements or over-the-counter drugs

• You plan to consume grapefruit juice or alcohol, as these may affect drug absorption

Avoid taking BISALATIN 20 with food, especially high-fat meals, as it may reduce the drug's effectiveness. The tablet is usually taken on an empty stomach (at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after food).

Drug Interactions with Bilastine

Bilastine may interact with the following drugs and substances:

• Ketoconazole, erythromycin, or diltiazem, which may increase blood levels of bilastine

• Rifampicin, which may reduce the effectiveness of bilastine

• Cyclosporine and other immunosuppressants

• Grapefruit juice, which interferes with bilastine absorption and should be avoided

• Other antihistamines or sedative medications may increase the risk of drowsiness
