azelastine: azeptin is azelastine hydrochloride; structure; eye drop formulation effective in relieving symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis; do not confuse with 5-loxin which is an extract of Boswellia
azelastine : A phthalazine compound having an oxo substituent at the 1-position, a 1-methylazepan-4-yl group at the 2-position and a 4-chlorobenzyl substituent at the 4-position.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The present data do not support the thesis that the increased plasma histamine concentration is causally related to pruritus in hemodialysis patients or that the antiallergic drug, azelastin HCL, alleviates the pruritus of dialysis patients by decreasing plasma histamine levels."9.07Effects of azelastin on pruritus and plasma histamine levels in hemodialysis patients. ( Hamada, M; Hasegawa, M; Ida, M; Matsui, C; Morohashi, M, 1994)
"Pruritus is a very common complication in chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients, however the exact mechanism for this affliction is still not known."5.29The effect of azelastin hydrochloride on pruritus and leukotriene B4 in hemodialysis patients. ( Fujimi, S; Fujishima, M; Hirakata, E; Hirakata, H; Kanai, H; Nagashima, A; Okuda, S, 1995)

( Hamada, M; Hasegawa, M; Ida, M; Matsui, C; Morohashi, M, 1994)
"Azelastine was superior to cetirizine in reducing pruritus, whereas cetirizine caused a more marked reduction of whealing."2.69Differential effects of new-generation H1-receptor antagonists in pruritic dermatoses. ( Henz, BM; Metzenauer, P; O'Keefe, E; Zuberbier, T, 1998)
"Ginsenoside Re was orally administered to the mice treated with antibiotics (cefadroxil, oxytetracycline and erythromycin mixture (COE), streptomycin or/and tetracycline) and then investigated the relationship between ginsenoside Re-metabolizing β-glucosidase and α-rhamnosidase activities of intestinal microflora and its antiscratching behavioral effect."1.38Antibiotics attenuate anti-scratching behavioral effect of ginsenoside Re in mice.
