How Ralzal 10 mg Tablet Works

Ralzal 10 mg Tablet contains rupatadine, which works by blocking two main substances in your body that trigger allergic reactions: histamine and platelet-activating factor (PAF). When your body encounters an allergen like pollen, dust, or pet dander, it releases these chemicals, which lead to swelling, itching, sneezing, and a runny nose. By blocking both of these pathways, this medicine stops the allergic response at its source, helping to prevent and reduce your symptoms.
