- |||||||||| Review, Journal: Pollen respiratory allergy: Is it really seasonal? (Pubmed Central) - Jul 31, 2023
The efficacy and safety of fexofenadine for the treatment of seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) symptoms have been demonstrated by numerous clinical studies, irrespective of the season and underlying allergen. In this review, we discuss the allergic rhinitis classification, the role of climate change, air pollution, and factors contributing to year-round symptoms in patients with AR and the need for continuous pharmacological treatment for management.

Paradoxical worsening of Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria following Omalizumab- the missing link (Poster Zone C) - Apr 30, 2023 - Abstract #EAACI2023EAACI_1756; Anti-IgE Omalizumab may interfere with anti-parasitic immunity (mediated by IgE) and thus favor infestation. Therefore, it is suggested to appropriately screen for occult parasitic infestations before starting Omalizumab in CSU patients living and/or working in endemic settings.

Journal: Enantioselective Intramolecular α-Arylation of Benzylamine Derivatives: Synthesis of a Precursor to Levocetirizine. (Pubmed Central) - Jan 27, 2023 Enantioselective lithiation of N'-aryl-N-benzyl-N-isopropyl ureas using a chiral lithium amide base generates a benzyllithium that undergoes an unactivated stereospecific intramolecular nucleophilic aromatic substitution to generate an α,α-diarylmethylamine in the form of its urea derivative, in up to >99% ee. Treatment with acid induces an 'azatropic shift' with retention of configuration, the product of which may be hydrolysed to the target amine.

Journal: Cetirizine more potently exerts mast cell-stabilizing property than diphenhydramine. (Pubmed Central) - Oct 21, 2022 This study provided in vitro evidence for the first time that cetirizine more potently inhibited the process of exocytosis in mast cells than diphenhydramine, indicating its higher potency as a mast cell-stabilizer. Such mast cell-stabilizing property of cetirizine could be ascribed to its counteracting effect on the plasma membrane deformation in degranulating mast cells.

This study was aimed to evaluate the effects of H1 antagonist's ebastine and levocetirizine in PD per se and in combination...Group III was treated with levodopa/carbidopa (levo 20 mg/kg)...In combination therapy with the standard drug, ebastine (4 mg/kg) significantly improved the cataleptic state and dopamine levels, but no significant difference in the renal and liver functioning tests was observed. This study concluded that ebastine (4 mg/kg) might work in the treatment of PD as it improves the cataleptic state in haloperidol-induced catalepsy.
