idiopathic urticaria

Astemizole (Laridal) is a synthetic piperidinyl-benzimidazol derivative with antiallergic properties, acts as a reversible competitive inhibitor of histamine H1 receptors, with less anticholinergic effects compared to related agents. It is a long-acting, non-sedative antihistaminic used in the treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis, asthma, allergic conjunctivitis, and chronic idiopathic urticaria.

Ebastine (Kestine) (trade names Evastin, Kestine, Ebastel, Aleva) is a non-sedating H1 antihistamine. It does not penetrate the blood-brain barrier and thus allows an effective block of the H1 receptor in peripheral tissue without a central side effect, i. e not causing sedation or drowsiness.

Fexofenadine Impurity F, an impurity present in Fexofenadine, is characterized by its role in the pharmacological profile of this drug. As a H1R antagonist, Fexofenadine serves as an anti-allergic agent, effectively employed in the treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticaria [1].

Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride (Xyzal Dihydrochloride) is a third-generation peripheral H1-receptor antagonist. Acting as an antihistaminic agent, it specifically targets the histamine H1-receptor. Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride is the R-enantiomer of Cetirizine, which gives it a higher affinity for the H1-receptor than the S-enantiomer. Due to this enhanced affinity, Levocetirizine Dihydrochloride is effective in treating allergic rhinitis and chronic idiopathic urticaria.

Pidotimod is a synthetic dipeptide with immunomodulatory properties.
