The product name "FEXET D 60mg + 120mg Tablets" appears to suggest a dual-antihistamine combination. However, this is not pharmacologically accurate.

In reality, FEXET D is a fixed-dose combination of:

✅ Fexofenadine Hydrochloride 60mg (a non-sedating antihistamine)

✅ Pseudoephedrine Hydrochloride 120mg (a nasal decongestant)

This combination is used for the relief of allergic rhinitis symptoms with significant nasal congestion, where an antihistamine alone is insufficient.

📌 Note: The "D" in the brand name typically stands for "Decongestant", not a second antihistamine.
