What is Benadryl (Acrivastine) allergy relief?

Acrivastine is a type of antihistamine medication so it works by stopping the effects of histamine (type-H1) in the body. Histamine is released by the body in response to an allergen and it is responsible for the symptoms associated with allergic reactions and hay fever. Blocking the effects of histamine can provide relief from the symptoms of hay fever and allergies.

Benadryl (Acrivastine) has been in clinical use for many years and it's safety and effectiveness has been proven internationally.
