Loratadine Pharmacodynamics
Blocker of H1-histamine receptors (long-acting). Suppresses the release of histamine and leukotriene C4 from mast cells. Prevents the development and facilitates the course of allergic reactions. It has anti-allergic, antipruritic, antiexudative action. Reduces capillary permeability, prevents the development of tissue edema, relieves spasms of smooth muscles. Anti-allergic effect develops in 30 minutes, reaches its maximum in 8-12 hours and lasts for 24 hours. It does not affect the central nervous system and is not addictive (as it does not penetrate through the blood-brain barrier).
