Application

Acrivastine has been used as an antihistamine to investigate the relation between the increased residence time of antihistamine at the histamine H1 receptor (H1R) and the duration of effective target-inhibition by this antagonist.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Acrivastine is a second-generation antihistamine, an H1-receptor antagonist.
Acrivastine is a second-generation antihistamine. It is a derivative of first-generation compound triprolidine. Acrivastine is effectively used for treating allergic diseases including cholinergic urticaria and histamine-medicated dermatoses.

To investigate the frequency with which sedation was reported in post-marketing surveillance studies of four second generation antihistamines: loratadine, cetirizine, fexofenadine, and acrivastine. Prescription-event monitoring studies. Prescriptions were obtained for each cohort in the immediate post-marketing period. Event data were

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was used for the simultaneous quantification of the H(1)-antihistamine acrivastine and the decongestant pseudoephedrine hydrochloride. Both compounds were detected at the wavelength of 214 nm. The influence of the mobile phase and the detection wavelength was

Leukotriene receptor antagonists have shown some efficacy in t he treatment of asthma. Injection of LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4 into the skin leads to a weal-and-flare reaction, suggesting an involvement of leukotrienes in the pathogenesis of urticaria. Indeed, various reports

Most of the modern non-sedating H1 receptor antagonists (antihistamines) penetrate the brain poorly, allowing the use of doses large enough to counteract allergic processes in peripheral tissues without important central effects. The antihistamines reviewed here are acrivastine, astemizole, cetirizine, ebastine
