MULTIPLE PACKS

- As pharmacists we must always comply explicitly with your doctors prescribed directions this includes the quantity of the prescription goods to be supplied. Therefore the only time we can supply an increased quantity of a prescribed medicine is if the doctor prescribes that quantity for you.
AUTHORITY PRESCRIPTION
- Some PBS medications are restricted and require prior approval from Medicare before a doctor is able to prescribe them on the PBS. This prior approval to prescribe grants the doctor the Authority to prescribe the desired medicine and have it funded under the PBS.
Authority to prescribe an Authority medicine is granted for specific indications and/or for certain patient circumstances. Authority may be obtained by telephone to Medicare Australia (known as "phone approval") or in writing from an authorised delegate of the Minister for Health.
Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number).
Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication.
But still pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has the necessary Authority code.
PHARMACIST ONLY MEDICINE
- This product is a Pharmacist Only Medicine and requires pharmacist advice before we can dispatch this product. You must first place the order and then contact our pharmacists within 48 hours on 1300 367 283.

Information
Telfast 180mg is an effective treatment providing hayfever allergy relief within one hour and lasts for up to 24 hours.
It contains an antihistamine called fexofenadine hydrochloride which helps reduce common hayfever symptoms such as runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes, itchy throat and itchy skin rash (hives). The non-drowsy formula means your day can go on uninterrupted.
Consider using Telfast 180mg with Telnasal Allergy Spray. Telnasal may be used to help prevent the onset of hayfever symptoms for up to 6 months in adults and children aged 12 years .
Seasonal allergic rhinitis and hives
Seasonal allergic rhinitis, or hayfever, is caused by an allergy to pollen from grasses, flowers, or trees. It causes sudden, frequent attacks of sneezing, nasal discharge and congestion. These episodes may also be accompanied by eye symptoms, such as stinging, watering eyes and itchy eyes. While it typically develops in childhood, it is not unusual to develop hayfever as an adult. The average age to develop seasonal allergic rhinitis is 15 years.5
Hives (otherwise known as Urticaria) are characterised by circular red, raised and itchy welts on the surface of the skin. They may look like mosquito bites, with a red outer rim and a white centre. They cause a rash, which may occur anywhere on the body, but is most commonly found on the torso, throat, arms and legs. Welts may vary in size from relatively small to the size of a dinner plate. Individual hives usually disappear within minutes, however they may come and go for days, weeks or sometimes longer.6
The Australasian Society of Clinical Immunology and Allergy (ASCIA) estimates that up to 20% of Australians will develop hives over their lifetime.6
