1. What is Ebastina Sandoz and what is it used for

Ebastine is an antihistamine that helps to relieve the symptoms of allergy such as: sneezing, runny nose, tearful eyes, itchy skin rashes.

Ebastine is used in adults and children over 12 years of age to relieve the symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and perennial allergic rhinitis, including cases with allergic conjunctivitis.

Ebastine 10 mg tablets are also used in adults over 18 years of age to relieve the symptoms of itching and hives in cases of urticaria (hives).

Doctor consultation

Not sure if this medicine is right for you?

Discuss your symptoms and treatment with a doctor online.

2. What you need to know before you take Ebastina Sandoz

Do not take Ebastina Sandoz:

  • If you are allergic to ebastine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking Ebastina Sandoz if:

  • You are already taking certain antibiotics or medicines used to treat fungal infections: see section “Taking Ebastina Sandoz with other medicines” below,
  • You have severe liver function impairment (liver failure).

Children and adolescents

This medicine should only be used in children from 12 years of age. Do not give this medicine to children under 12 years because the safety and efficacy in this age group have not been established.

Taking Ebastina Sandoz with other medicines

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines.

If you take ebastine with erythromycin (an antibiotic), ketoconazole or itraconazole (active substances for the treatment of fungal infections), it may increase the levels of ebastine in the blood.

Taking ebastine and rifampicin (an antitubercular agent) together may lead to a decrease in ebastine blood levels and therefore a decrease in its effect.

It is not recommended to use ebastine at the same time as clarithromycin or josamycin (antibiotics).

Taking Ebastina Sandoz with food and drinks

Ebastina Sandoz can be taken with or without food.

Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility

There are no sufficient data on the safety for the fetus of the use of this medicine in humans. For this reason, ebastine should only be taken during pregnancy if your doctor considers that the benefit outweighs the possible risks.

Do not take ebastine if you are breast-feeding, as it is not known whether the active substance is excreted in breast milk.

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking this medicine.

Driving and using machines

Most patients taking ebastine can drive or perform other activities that require attention. However, as with other medicines, you should check your individual reaction after taking ebastine before driving or performing complex activities, as some patients may experience drowsiness or dizziness.

Ebastina Sandoz contains lactose, aspartame, and sodium.

This medicine contains lactose. If your doctor has told you that you have an intolerance to some sugars, consult them before taking this medicine.

This medicine contains 2.5 mg of aspartame (E951) per 10 mg tablet and 5 mg of aspartame (E951) per 20 mg tablet. Aspartame is a source of phenylalanine, which may be harmful for people with phenylketonuria (a rare genetic disorder in which phenylalanine accumulates in the body because it is not properly broken down).

This medicine contains less than 23 mg of sodium (1 mmol) per oral dispersible tablet, which is essentially “sodium-free”.
