  • Ketoconazole (an antifungal medication)
  • Erythromycin (an antibiotic)
  • Diltiazem (to treat angina – chest pain or pressure)
  • Ciclosporin (to reduce the activity of the immune system, and thus prevent transplant rejection or reduce the activity of autoimmune and allergic diseases, such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, or rheumatoid arthritis)
  • Ritonavir (to treat HIV/AIDS)
  • Rifampicin (an antibiotic)

Taking Bilaxten Flas with food, drinks, and alcohol

These buccal dispersible tablets should not be taken with food or with orange juice or other fruit juices, as this would reduce the effect of bilastine. To avoid this, you can:

  • if your child has eaten food or taken fruit juice, wait for two hours before giving your child the buccal dispersible tablet.

Bilastine, at the recommended dose in adults (20 mg), does not increase the drowsiness produced by alcohol.
