About Deswin 10 Tablet 15's

Deswin 10 Tablet 15's is used to treat allergic rhinitis and urticaria. Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) is characterized by a runny nose, sneezing, red, watery, itchy, and swollen eyes occurring due to exposure to allergens. Urticaria (hives) is an itchy skin reaction due to triggers such as food, drugs, or other irritations.

Deswin 10 Tablet 15's contains ‘desloratadine’, which acts as an antihistamine. It blocks the action of histamines (chemicals causing allergic symptoms) and reduces the allergic reaction.
