How does the ingredient of the medicine work?

If allergy-causing substances, e.g. pollen, come into contact with the eyes or nose, the body's own messenger substance histamine is released in the mucous membranes of the eyes and nose and they become inflamed. The active ingredient prevents this allergic reaction by keeping histamine away from the mucous membranes. In this way, the active ingredient quickly combats the unpleasant allergic symptoms in the eyes and nose such as itching, redness, swelling or sneezing.

Application
