I have a friend in Englnad who recently also commented how the information leaflet not spc now stated up to two a day.
Had a script once for Astemizole 2 BD didn't dispense it though - got straight on to doctor and got it changed to 1 od, this was the days before it was withdrawn from use.

Wasn't one of the antihistamines licensed for asthma, think it was Ketotifen?
