Pharmacology

Fenox 120 mg tablet is an antihistamine with selective peripheral H₁-receptor antagonist activity. It is rapidly absorbed after oral doses with peak plasma concentrations being reached in 2-3 hours and about 60 to 70% bound to plasma proteins. About 5% of the total doses are metabolized, mostly by the intestinal mucosa, with only 0.5 to 1.5% of the dose undergoing hepatic biotransformation by the cytochrome P450 system. An elimination half-life of 14 hours has been reported although this may be prolonged in patients with renal impairment. Excretion is mainly in the feces with only 10% being present in the urine. Fexofenadine does not appear to cross the blood-brain barrier.
