Product Overview
Allelock OD Tablets 2.5mg are a high-quality, non-drowsy antihistamine from Japan designed to relieve allergy symptoms. Each tablet contains 2.5mg of olopatadine hydrochloride, a second-generation anti-allergy ingredient that effectively eases sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and skin itchiness caused by allergies. It is used to treat allergic rhinitis (hay fever), urticaria (hives), and even allergic conjunctivitis (allergy-related eye irritation).
The “OD” in Allelock OD stands for Orally Disintegrating – these tablets dissolve quickly on your tongue, so you can take them without water, anytime and anywhere. Allelock is produced under strict pharmaceutical standards in Japan, ensuring purity and potency. The only difference between the 2.5mg and 5mg versions of Allelock is the strength of the tablet. Both strengths provide the same non-drowsy allergy relief; the 2.5mg version offers more flexibility for adjusting dosage (for example, for those who require a lower dose or for pediatric use as directed by a doctor), while the 5mg version offers the convenience of a higher dose in a single pill.
Dosage Guidelines
- Adults : Take 5 mg twice daily (once in the morning and once before bed). For the 2.5mg tablets, this means taking 2 tablets per dose, twice a day.
- Children under 7 : Use only under medical advice. A doctor may prescribe 2.5mg (one tablet) twice daily for younger children if needed.
- How to take : Place the tablet on your tongue and let it dissolve completely before swallowing. You may also swallow it with water if preferred. Do not chew the tablet.
- For seasonal allergies : Begin taking Allelock at the start of allergy season and continue daily until the end of the season to maintain symptom relief.
- Do not exceed : Do not take more than the recommended dosage. If you accidentally take too many tablets or if your symptoms are not controlled, consult a healthcare professional.
Possible Side Effects
Allelock is generally well-tolerated and is known as a non-sedating antihistamine. However, like all medications, some side effects may occur in certain individuals. Common side effects are usually mild and may include:
- Drowsiness or sleepiness (although less than with first-generation antihistamines)
- Dry mouth
- Fatigue or malaise (feeling of tiredness)
- Headache or dizziness
- Nausea or mild stomach discomfort
- Occasional mild rash or itching (sign of mild allergic reaction)
Serious side effects are rare. If you experience any severe symptoms such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, a severe rash, or yellowing of the eyes/skin (possible liver issue), stop taking Allelock and seek medical attention immediately. If any mild side effect persists or becomes bothersome, consult a healthcare provider for advice.
FAQ
Q: What should I do if I miss a dose?
A: If you forget to take a dose of Allelock, take it as soon as you remember, as long as it’s not too close to your next scheduled dose. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for the one you missed. Staying on a consistent schedule will provide the best results for allergy relief.
Q: Will Allelock make me drowsy?
A: Allelock is classified as a non-drowsy (second-generation) antihistamine. That means it’s less likely to cause drowsiness compared to older allergy medications. Most people can take Allelock during the day without feeling sleepy. However, individual responses vary – a few users might experience mild drowsiness. It’s a good idea to first take Allelock when you don’t need to drive or operate machinery until you know how your body reacts. If you do feel drowsy, avoid activities requiring alertness. In general, Allelock is well-tolerated and ideal for daytime allergy relief.
Q: What is the difference between the 2.5mg and 5mg versions of Allelock?
A: The only difference between Allelock OD 2.5mg and 5mg is the strength of the active ingredient per tablet. Both contain olopatadine hydrochloride and work exactly the same way to relieve allergies. The 5mg version is simply a higher dose in one pill, which is convenient for adults (one tablet per dose). The 2.5mg version has half the strength per tablet; it’s typically taken as two tablets per dose for adults, but it offers flexibility for those who might require a lower dose or incremental dosing (for example, starting with a lower dose or for use in children under medical guidance). In summary, you’ll get the same effective allergy relief from both – choose 5mg for convenience or 2.5mg if you need dosing flexibility.
