Desloratadine 2.5 mg, pseudoephedrine sulphate 120 mg
Indications / Uses
Symptomatic relief of nasal & non-nasal allergic rhinitis including nasal congestion in adults & childn ≥12 yr.
.
Dosage
Adults and adolescents (≥ 12 years of age): One AERIUS D-12 Tablet twice a day regardless of mealtime. For oral use.
Caution: Do not chew, break or crush the tablet. Swallow whole.
The duration of treatment should be kept as short as possible and should not be continued after the symptoms have disappeared. The incremental efficacy of pseudoephedrine over desloratadine alone has not been studied beyond a duration of two weeks.
Special Precautions
AERIUS D-12 Tablets should be used with caution in patients with hypertension, diabetes mellitus, ischemic heart disease, increased intraocular pressure, hyperthyroidism, renal impairment, liver impairment or prostatic hypertrophy. Central nervous system stimulation with convulsions or cardiovascular collapse with accompanying hypotension may be produced by sympathomimetic amines.
Severe skin reactions such as acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) may occur with pseudoephedrine-containing products. Patients should be carefully monitored. If signs and symptoms such as pyrexia, erythema, or many small pustules are observed, administration of this drug should be discontinued and appropriate measures taken if needed.
Use in children: AERIUS D-12 Tablets are not appropriate dosage forms in pediatric patients and are not recommended in patients under 12 years of age due to a lack of data on safety and efficacy.
Use in elderly: Elderly patients are more likely to have adverse reactions to sympathomimetic amines. Dose selection for elderly patients should be cautious, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal, or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy in this population
