Allertec - blocker of histamine H1 receptors of 3rd generation with antiallergic and antipruritic action. Affects the "early" stage of an allergic reaction and reduces the migration of eosinophils; limits the release of mediators at a late stage of an allergic reaction. Virtually no anticholinergic and antiserotonin action. In therapeutic doses, it does not cause sedation.

Composition

Cetirizine + auxiliary substances.

Pharmacokinetics

Quickly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Bioavailability of Cetirizine when taken in the form of tablets and syrup is the same. In small amounts, it is metabolized in the liver by O-dealkylation to form a pharmacologically inactive metabolite (unlike other antagonists of H1-histamine receptors that are metabolized in the liver by the cytochrome system). Do not cumulate. 2/3 of the dose is excreted unchanged by the kidneys and about 10% - with feces. Penetrates into breast milk.

Review of the allergist doctor

A good, affordable and convenient to use antiallergic drug. I assign it to patients with cutaneous manifestations of allergies (hives, atopic dermatitis). In addition, Allertec is used in the treatment of many of my patients with allergic rhinitis and conjunctivitis. None of them complains about unwanted reactions during the taking of tablets. All patients note that a single intake of Allertec per day is enough to safely survive, for example,unfavorable for them periods of flowering plants. Patients like that the drug does not have a sedative effect.
