Allegra-D contains two drugs: fexofenadine and pseudoephedrine. Fexofenadine is an anti-histamine and pseudoephedrine is a decongestant that "dries up" your nose. Both of them are helpful if you have Allergies and get the nose and eyes symptoms (e.g. runny/stuffy nose, itchy and watery eyes, etc).

Mucinex contains a medicaiton called guaiphenesin. It is an expectorant which helps loosen up mucous in your air ways so that you cough up the phlegm easier. It's most effective if you've got a chesty, productive (mucousy) cough.

What is the difference between mucinex and mucinex d?

Mucinex PE has Phenylephrine in it and Mucinex D has Pseudoephedrine. They are both decongestants but Pseudoephedrine is also the main ingredient in making Methamphetamine. In an effort to stop Methamphetamine production, the federal law requires that all nonprescription medications containing Pseudoephedrine be taken off drugstore shelves and kept behind the counter in the pharmacy. To purchase these medications, you have to go to the pharmacy and ask for it. You must also show some form of government-issued identification and sign a logbook.
