Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Subjects who have given written informed consent to participate in the study. 2. Subjects of either sex aged between 18 to 65 years (both inclusive) with acute allergic rhinitis. 3. At the time of the enrolment subject should have an investigator assessed: A. Total Four Nasal Symptom Score of 4 -10 (both inclusive) with minimum nasal stiffness score of 2. B. Total Two Ocular Symptom Score of 1 â?? 5 (both inclusive) C. Cough with a score of 0-1 in a 4-point scale.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Subjects with history of hypersensitivity to antihistamines or any of the excipients of study formulations. 2.
