Antial Oral Solution 30ml contains Loratadine, a non-sedating antihistamine used to treat allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, and skin itching. It provides long-lasting relief from allergic reactions without causing significant drowsiness.

Loratadine works by blocking the action of histamine, a chemical released during allergic reactions. By preventing histamine activity, Antial helps reduce symptoms like itching, nasal congestion, and watery eyes.

Antial Oral Solution is commonly prescribed for both adults and children suffering from seasonal allergies, hay fever, and skin allergies such as urticaria (hives). Its pleasant liquid formulation makes it easy for children to take.
