Allergy is an individual reaction of an organism to a certain irritating factor. It can manifest itself in the form of urticaria, skin itching or rash, epidermal edema. An allergic reaction can cause great discomfort to the patient, and only medications, such as Ezlor tablets, can come to the rescue. Cheap analogs can also be used on the recommendation of a doctor.
About Ezlor
The drug belongs to the group of histamine H1 receptor blockers. The active ingredient is dysloratadine. In addition to the main substance, the composition of the product includes the following elements: povidone, microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium and magnesium stearate. A medication is available in the form of film-coated tablets. The average cost per package is 300 rubles.
In case of simple allergic manifestations, such as rhinitis or urticaria, the drug Ezlor may be prescribed. An analogue prescribed by a specialist may have the same indications. Often, drugs have the same composition and, accordingly, can be used for similar symptoms. The difference will be only in name and cost.
Means "Ezlor" has many high-quality analogues. The most popular of them will be described later.
"Desal"
If there is no Ezlor drug in the pharmacy, a cheaper analogue called Desal will come to the rescue. The main drug element here is also desloratadine. Tablets can be prescribed for the treatment of skin allergic reactions, such as rash, itching, urticaria. When swelling of the extremities is recommended, it is recommended to use more potent agents.
Like the drug "Ezlor", the analogue has many contraindications. This includes the period of gestation and lactation, children's age up to 12 years, hypersensitivity to the active component. It is not recommended to take pills after drinking alcohol. Desloratadine enhances the negative effects of ethanol on the body. The patients' reviews show that even a small glass of wine, drunk with an anti-allergy pill, leads to unpleasant side effects (nausea, stomach pain).

Although the effect of therapy is the same as that of the medicines described above. The composition also includes the following components: calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate, talc, corn starch, microcrystalline cellulose.
Erius syrup is also popular. Positive feedback from parents can be heard about the drug. In this form, the medicine can be prescribed to children over 12 months old.
