Mode of Action
Ebastine, a piperidine derivative, is a long-acting, nonsedating, second-generation histamine receptor antagonist that binds preferentially to peripheral H1 receptors. It is metabolised to active metabolite, carebastine. It has antihistaminic, antiallergic activity and prevents histamine-induced bronchoconstriction. It does not have significant sedative or antimuscarinic actions.
Precaution
Caution is advised when used in hepatic impairment, renal insufficiency, QTc interval prolongation. Pregnancy, lactation.
Concomitant use of ketoconazole, itraconazole, clarithromycin or erythromycin may increase plasma levels of ebastine and cause QTc interval prolongation.
