Bilastine
Description:
Bilastine is a non-sedating, long acting antihistamine with high selectivity and high affinity to H1 receptor. Bilastine does not show affinity for other receptors such as muscarinic, serotonergic, dopaminergic and noradrenergic receptors or subtypes of other histamine receptors (H2, H3, H4). Therefore, it shows very good efficacy and safety profile in treating allergic conditions.

Mode of Action:
Bilastine is a selective Histamine H1 receptor antagonist. During allergic response mast cells undergo degranulation which release Histamine and other substances. By binding to and preventing activation of the H1 receptor, Bilastine reduces the development of allergic symptoms due to the release of Histamine from mast cells.
