Which drug is used as an Anti-Histamine?

  1. A
    Fexofenadine
  2. B
    Ranitidine
  3. C
    Promethazine
  4. D
    Ibuprofen

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Both Fexofenadine and Promethazine have anti-histaminic properties. However, Fexofenadine is a second-generation selective blocker widely classified primarily as a standard non-drowsy anti-histamine drug used to treat allergy symptoms. Promethazine is primarily used as an antiemetic/sedative alongside its antihistamine properties. Ranitidine is an blocker (antacid) and Ibuprofen is an NSAID (analgesic/anti-inflammatory). Fexofenadine is the most accurate classical answer.
