HOW DEXCHLORAMINE WORKS
The name of your medicine is
Dexchloramine. It contains the
active
ingredient
dexchlorpheniramine
maleate
which
is
an
antihistamine.
Histamine
is
a
chemical
released into the body during
an allergic reaction. It causes
itching and inflammation.
Dexchloramine
works
by
blocking
the
effects
of
histamine,
calming
down
the
body's
allergic
reaction
and
starting
to
relieve
the
symptoms.
