Levocetirizin20.4
Fexofenadine39.9

Pruritus as Assessed by the VAS Score

"We measured drug concentrations and various aspects of skin provocation testing such as itch intensity and wheal size. Measurements made at each time point were as followed: Pruritus was assessed every 30 s for 10 min after SPT using a visual analogue scale (VAS) score with a 0 and 100 at the two ex- tremes of an unmarked 100 mm line with higher values indicating greater puritus. The mean VAS for each 10 min was calculated and used as a primary end Point." (NCT01586091)
