Fexofenadine is not considered an anticholinergic medication. It is a second-generation antihistamine primarily used to relieve allergy symptoms by blocking the effects of histamine in the body. Unlike first-generation antihistamines, fexofenadine has minimal sedative effects and does not significantly affect cholinergic receptors, making it less likely to cause anticholinergic side effects.

What is the difference between fexofenadine hcl and fexofenadine?

Fexofenadine HCl and fexofenadine are essentially the same medication, with fexofenadine HCl being the hydrochloride salt form of fexofenadine. The addition of the hydrochloride salt increases the solubility of the drug, making it easier to formulate into oral dosage forms such as tablets or syrups. In terms of pharmacological activity, both forms are equally effective in treating allergies by blocking the action of histamine at the H1 receptor.
