Bastin-M Tablet 10's

Bastin-M Tablet 10's belongs to a class of medication called 'anti-allergic' medication, primarily used to treat allergic symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, congestion, stuffy nose or watery eyes. An allergy is the body's natural response to a foreign substance that may or may not be harmful. This is a protective mechanism of the body to keep a person healthy by fighting pathogens. Symptoms of an allergy include sore throat, hives, itching, burning and many more.

This reduces inflammation (swelling) in the airways and nose and improves symptoms.

Allergic rhinitis or Allergies is a natural response of the immune system against a substance called an allergen. Hypersensitive responses can happen with anyone, regardless of whether they have not had sensitivities previously. There is a possibility that a person may build up a sensitivity after coming in contact with an allergen more than once. Mild allergy symptoms include wheezing, a runny, blocked nose, swollen, watery eyes, or skin itching. Serious signs of an allergy are difficulty breathing, a rash, or hives. Hypersensitivity is an unexpected response that sometimes turns into a dangerous response and needs quick treatment.
