CHEMICAL COMPOSITION:
IUPAC name for fexofenadine is 2-[4-[1-hydroxy-4-[4-[hydroxy(diphenyl)methyl]piperidin-1-yl]butyl]phenyl]-2-methylpropanoic acid. The molecular formula for this compound is C32H39NO4.
PRODUCT APPLICATION:
The main action of this drug is to block the receptor upon which histamine acts. Blockage of these receptors results in the reduction of allergic symptoms. In addition, fexofenadine also exerts its action on mast cells by inhibiting histamine release. This compound also manages late-phase allergy due to its activity on leukotrienes and prostaglandins. Fexofenadine is better than other anti-allergic drugs because of its inability to cross the blood-brain barrier and its no sedative effect.
