1. What is Polaramine and what is it used for

Dexclorfeniramine belongs to a group of medicines known as antihistamines.

Polaramine is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis, vasomotor rhinitis, allergic conjunctivitis, uncomplicated mild allergic skin manifestations of urticaria and angioedema, and reactions to blood or plasma. It is also indicated in the treatment of anaphylactic reactions in conjunction with adrenaline or other appropriate measures, after controlling acute manifestations. Polaramine often relieves skin manifestations such as allergic eczema, atopic dermatitis, and contact dermatitis, insect bites, dermatographism, and drug reactions.

2. What you need to know before you take Polaramine

Do not take Polaramine

  • Polaramine should not be administered to newborns and premature infants.

Warnings and Precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Polaramine:

Children

The safety and efficacy of Polaramine in children under 6 years of age have not been established, so it should not be administered to these patients. Polaramine may cause nervousness and restlessness, especially in children.

Taking Polaramine with other medicines

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

A special type of antidepressants known as monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) prolong and intensify the effect of antihistamines, which may cause severe hypotension, i.e., severe drops in blood pressure.

The simultaneous use of Polaramine with tricyclic antidepressants, barbiturates, or other medicines that act on the central nervous system may potentiate the sedative effect of Polaramine.

Medicines of the Polaramine group (antihistamines) may decrease the action of oral anticoagulants, so you should consult your doctor before taking Polaramine.

Taking Polaramine with food, drinks, and alcohol

The simultaneous use of Polaramine with alcohol may potentiate the sedative effect of Polaramine.

Interaction with laboratory tests

Treatment with Polaramine should be suspended at least 48 hours before performing any skin allergy test, as medicines of the Polaramine group (antihistamines) may mask the result of these tests.

Pregnancy, Breast-feeding, and Fertility

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

Pregnancy

Polaramine should not be administered during the third trimester of pregnancy because newborns and premature infants may have severe reactions to antihistamines.

During the first two trimesters of pregnancy, Polaramine should only be used if your doctor considers it necessary.
