Active Ingredient | Description | |
---|---|---|
Cetirizine |
Cetirizine, a human metabolite of hydroxyzine, is a potent and selective antagonist of peripheral H1-receptors. In vitro receptor binding studies have shown no measurable affinity for other than Η1-receptors. |
|
Chlorcyclizine |
|
|
Cyclizine |
Cyclizine is a histamine H1 receptor antagonist of the piperazine class which is characterised by a low incidence of drowsiness. It possesses anticholinergic and antiemetic properties. The exact mechanism by which cyclizine can prevent or suppress both nausea and vomiting from various causes is unknown. |
|
Levocetirizine |
Levocetirizine, the ® enantiomer of cetirizine, is a potent and selective antagonist of peripheral H1-receptors. Pharmacodynamic studies in healthy volunteers demonstrate that, at half the dose, levocetirizine has comparable activity to cetirizine, both in the skin and in the nose. |
|
Meclozine |
Meclizine is a first generation antihistamine that is used largely to treat vertigo and motion sickness. |
|
Oxatomide |
