Реактин

Реактин Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

Реактин is a selective second-generation H1-receptor antagonist used for allergic conjunctivitis. Реактин was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1979.

Реактин is a selective histamine H1-receptor antagonist exerting inhibitory effects on the release of chemical mediators from mast cells and on the chemotaxis of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and eosinophils. Both histamine and antigens induced conjunctivitis can be inhibited by levocabastine. Реактин can also reduce symptoms of allergic rhinitis by preventing an increase in vascular permeability of nasal mucosa.

Uses

Реактин is a selective histamine H1 receptor antagonist indicated for the management of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis symptoms.

As an ophthalmic for the temporary relief of the signs and symptoms of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis. Also used as a nasal spray for allergic rhinitis.

Реактин is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Allergic Rhinitis (AR), Conjunctivitis allergic

How Реактин works

Реактин is a potent, selective histamine H1-receptor antagonist. It works by competing with histamine for H1-receptor sites on effector cells. It thereby prevents, but does not reverse, responses mediated by histamine alone. Реактин does not block histamine release but, rather, prevents histamine binding and activity. Реактин also binds neurotensin 2 receptors and serves as a neurotensin agonist. This can induce some degree of analgesia.

Toxicity

Adverse effects include visual disturbances, dry mouth, cough, nausea, eyelid edema and lacrimation.

Food Interaction

No interactions found.

Elimination Route

After instillation in the eye, levocabastine is systemically absorbed, albeit at low levels.

Half Life

36 hours (after oral administration)
