Helozine Syrup is an oral antihistamine formulation containing Hydroxyzine, known for its dual role in managing allergic conditions and anxiety-related symptoms. This fast-acting syrup is specially formulated to offer relief from a variety of allergic reactions, including hay fever, urticaria (hives), pruritus (itching), and other dermatologic or respiratory allergic responses. Its calming properties also make it useful in managing anxiety and tension in both children and adults.
Hydroxyzine works by blocking histamine H1 receptors, which helps reduce the effects of histamine in the body — a chemical that is responsible for many allergic symptoms. In addition to its antihistaminic activity, Hydroxyzine also acts as a mild sedative by affecting certain areas in the brain, making Helozine Syrup beneficial for controlling agitation, sleep disturbances, and pre-operative anxiety.
This syrup is ideal for pediatric and geriatric use due to its liquid form, which ensures accurate dosing and easy administration. It provides quick relief from itching, skin rashes, watery eyes, runny nose, and sneezing associated with allergies. The calming effect of Helozine Syrup can also help reduce nausea and vomiting in some cases, especially those triggered by emotional distress or motion sickness.
Helozine Syrup is generally well-tolerated when used as prescribed. It begins to take effect within 15 to 30 minutes and provides relief for several hours. It is non-habit forming but should be used cautiously, especially in individuals with liver or kidney impairment or those taking other central nervous system depressants.
