emedastine and Conjunctivitis, Allergic

emedastine has been researched along with Conjunctivitis, Allergic in 13 studies

emedastine: structure given in first source
emedastine : 1-Methyl-1,4-diazepane in which the hydrogen attached to the nitrogen at position 4 is substituted by a 1-(2-ethoxyethyl)-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl group. A relatively selective histamine H1 antagonist, it is used as the difumatate salt for allergic rhinitis, urticaria, and pruritic skin disorders, and in eyedrops for the symptomatic relief of allergic conjuntivitis.

Conjunctivitis, Allergic: Conjunctivitis due to hypersensitivity to various allergens.
