DESLOR 5 MG contains Desloratadine, an antihistamine that blocks the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. It is effective in managing conditions such as allergic rhinitis, hay fever, and chronic idiopathic urticaria (hives). Unlike older antihistamines, it does not cause significant drowsiness, making it suitable for daytime use.
