Aritoz Tablet

About

Aritoz Tablet is an antihistamine medication primarily used to alleviate symptoms associated with allergic reactions. It works by blocking the action of histamine, a natural substance produced by the body during an allergic response. Histamine is responsible for causing symptoms like itching, sneezing, runny nose, and watery eyes. By inhibiting histamine receptors, Aritoz helps to reduce these uncomfortable symptoms, providing relief from various allergic conditions. It is typically a non-drowsy or less-drowsy formulation, making it suitable for daily use without significantly impairing alertness.

The medication is absorbed orally and begins to exert its effects within a few hours, offering sustained relief over a prolonged period. It is metabolized in the liver and excreted through the kidneys. Aritoz is generally well-tolerated, but like all medications, it should be used under medical guidance, especially in individuals with pre-existing conditions or those taking other medications. Adherence to prescribed dosage is important to maximize efficacy and minimize potential side effects.
