1. What is Azelastin COMOD and what is it used for
Azelastin COMOD contains the active ingredient azelastine hydrochloride, which belongs to the group of antihistamine medicines. The action of antihistamines is to prevent the action of substances such as histamine, which is produced by the body during an allergic reaction. Azelastine has been shown to relieve eye inflammation. Azelastin COMOD can be used to treat and prevent eye disorders caused by hay fever (seasonal allergic conjunctivitis) in adults and children aged 4 years and older. Azelastin COMOD can also be used to treat eye disorders caused by allergies to substances such as house dust mites or animal hair (perennial allergic conjunctivitis) in adults and children aged 12 years and older.
Azelastin COMOD is not suitable for the treatment of eye infections.
