How Bilargic 2.5 MG Oral Solution 60 ML Works?

Binds to H1 Receptors: Bilastine attaches itself to the H1 receptors on cells in your nose, eyes, and skin. This prevents histamine from binding to these receptors.
Blocks Histamine: Histamine is a compound released in large amounts during allergic reactions. When Bilastine blocks histamine from attaching to H1 receptors, allergic symptoms like sneezing and itching are significantly reduced.
Minimises Side Effects: The high specificity of Bilastine for the H1 receptor helps ensure effective relief from allergy symptoms with minimal side effects.
