Deslo

Introduction
Deslo is an antihistamine medicine that contains Desloratadine. It is commonly prescribed in Pakistan to relieve symptoms of allergies such as sneezing, itching, runny nose, and watery eyes. It is also useful for skin conditions like hives, where itching and redness cause discomfort.

Composition
The active ingredient is Desloratadine, a non-sedating antihistamine. Unlike older antihistamines, it generally does not cause drowsiness in most patients.

Medical Use
Doctors in Pakistan prescribe Deslo for:

• Seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever)

• Perennial allergic rhinitis (year-round nasal allergies)

• Chronic urticaria (hives, with itching and redness)

• Other allergy-related skin or nasal conditions

How to Take
Deslo is taken orally, usually once daily, with or without food. The exact dose depends on the patient’s age, condition, and doctor’s advice. Children, adults, and elderly patients may receive different doses, so self-medication is not advised.

Precautions

• Use only as prescribed by a doctor.

• Inform your physician if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have liver or kidney problems.

• Do not take more than the recommended dose.

• Store at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight.

Side Effects
Deslo is usually well tolerated. Some patients may experience headache, dry mouth, sore throat, or mild tiredness. Serious side effects are very rare.

Doctor’s Review
Dr. Saira Hussain – Consultant Physician
“I frequently prescribe Desloratadine to patients suffering from allergies and chronic hives. It provides quick relief from itching, sneezing, and watery eyes, and patients appreciate that it does not usually make them sleepy. I always tell them to stick to the prescribed dose and to seek follow-up if symptoms do not improve.”
