Tavist contains the active ingredient clemastine fumarate. It is an antihistamine used to relieve symptoms caused by allergies.

Allergic Rhinitis

Tavist may be used to relieve symptoms of seasonal or year-round allergic rhinitis.

These symptoms may include:

  • Sneezing
  • Runny nose
  • Itchy nose or throat
  • Watery or itchy eyes

Seasonal allergic rhinitis is often triggered by pollen, while year-round allergies may be caused by things such as dust mites, mold, or pet dander.

Hives and Itching

Tavist may also be used to relieve symptoms of urticaria, also called hives.

Hives are raised, itchy areas on the skin that can develop as part of an allergic reaction.

By reducing the effects of histamine, Tavist can help relieve itching and discomfort.

How Tavist Works

Tavist belongs to a group of medications called first-generation antihistamines.

During an allergic reaction, the body releases a chemical called histamine.

Histamine can cause symptoms such as:

  • Sneezing
  • Runny nose
  • Itching
  • Watery eyes
  • Hives

Tavist works by blocking H1 histamine receptors, which reduces the effects of histamine and helps control allergy symptoms.

Drowsiness

Because Tavist is a first-generation antihistamine, it can enter the brain and may cause drowsiness, dizziness, or reduced alertness.

Avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how Tavist affects you.

What Tavist Does Not Treat

Tavist helps control allergy symptoms, but it does not cure the underlying allergy.

It also should not be used as the only treatment for a severe allergic reaction such as anaphylaxis, which requires emergency medical treatment.

Tavist tablets are taken by mouth as directed by your healthcare provider.

The tablets may generally be taken with or without food. If Tavist causes stomach upset, taking it with food or milk may help.

Try to take each dose at about the same time each day if you are using Tavist regularly.

Recommended Dose

The correct dose of Tavist depends on your age, the symptoms being treated, and how you respond to the medication.

For clemastine fumarate 1.34 mg tablets, the usual starting dose is 1 tablet twice daily. The dose may be increased if needed but should not exceed 6 tablets in one day.

For clemastine fumarate 2.68 mg tablets, many patients may respond to a single dose that can be repeated if needed. The maximum recommended dose is 1 tablet three times daily.

Follow the specific directions on your prescription label because the recommended dose can differ depending on the tablet strength you have.

Do Not Take More Than Prescribed

Do not increase your dose or take Tavist more often than recommended.

Taking more than prescribed can increase the risk of side effects, including excessive drowsiness, dizziness, and other nervous-system effects.

Take Tavist Regularly

If your healthcare provider has instructed you to take Tavist on a regular schedule, taking it at approximately the same times each day can help you remember your doses.

Continue to follow the dosing instructions provided by your healthcare provider or pharmacist.

If Your Symptoms Do Not Improve

Contact your healthcare provider if your allergy symptoms do not improve, become worse, or continue longer than expected.

Seek immediate medical attention if you develop symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, such as difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, or severe dizziness.

Glaucoma, Urinary Retention, and Stomach Problems

Tavist has anticholinergic effects and should be used with caution if you have:

Your healthcare provider may recommend closer monitoring or a different dose.

Use in Children

Do not give Tavist to a child unless the product label or a healthcare provider confirms that it is appropriate for the child’s age.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Tell your healthcare provider if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

Your healthcare provider can help determine whether Tavist is appropriate based on the potential benefits and risks.

Drug Interactions

Tavist can interact with medications that slow down the central nervous system and may increase drowsiness.

These may include:

  • Sedatives
  • Sleeping medications
  • Tranquilizers
  • Certain anxiety medications
  • Some antidepressants
  • Opioid pain medications

Tell your healthcare provider about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.

Dry Mouth and Dry Eyes

Tavist may cause dry mouth or dry eyes.

Drinking water, chewing sugar-free gum, or using an appropriate artificial tear product may help relieve these symptoms.

Contact your healthcare provider if dryness becomes severe or persistent.

Constipation

Constipation can occur while taking Tavist.

Drinking enough fluids and eating foods that contain fibre may help.

Contact your healthcare provider if constipation becomes severe or does not improve.

Overdose

Taking too much Tavist can cause serious effects, especially in children.

Symptoms of an overdose may include:

  • Severe drowsiness or agitation
  • Confusion
  • Tremors
  • Seizures
  • Fast or irregular heartbeat

Take only the recommended dose.

If an overdose is suspected, seek emergency medical attention or contact a poison control center right away.

Allergic Reactions

Do not take Tavist if you are allergic to clemastine or any ingredient in the medication.

Seek immediate medical attention if you develop:

  • Hives
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Severe rash
  • Swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat

These may be signs of a serious allergic reaction.

Can Tavist be taken with other medications?

Tavist can interact with other medications, especially those that cause drowsiness or slow down the central nervous system. These may include sedatives, sleeping medications, tranquilizers, some anxiety medications, certain antidepressants, and opioid pain medications. Before taking Tavist, tell your healthcare provider or pharmacist about all prescription medications, over-the-counter products, vitamins, supplements, and herbal products you use.

Can Tavist be taken with alcohol?

It is best to avoid alcohol while taking Tavist. Alcohol can increase drowsiness, dizziness, and reduced alertness caused by clemastine. Avoid drinking alcohol until you know how Tavist affects you and your healthcare provider has confirmed that it is safe.

Is Tavist available over the counter or by prescription only?

Availability can vary by country and by the specific clemastine product. Some clemastine products may require a prescription, while others may not be widely marketed or may no longer be routinely available. Check with a pharmacist to confirm whether Tavist or an equivalent clemastine product is available in your area and whether a prescription is required.

Can Tavist be used in children?

Tavist may be used in some children, but the appropriate age and dose depend on the specific clemastine product. Do not give Tavist to a child unless the product label or a healthcare provider confirms that it is appropriate for the child’s age.

Can Tavist be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Talk with your healthcare provider before taking Tavist if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Your healthcare provider can help determine whether the expected benefits of treatment outweigh any potential risks and whether another antihistamine may be more appropriate.
