About
Rupatadine 10mg is a second-generation, non-sedating antihistamine with selective peripheral H1-receptor antagonist activity. It is also known to possess anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting mast cell degranulation and the release of inflammatory mediators. This dual action contributes to its efficacy in managing allergic conditions. It is rapidly absorbed after oral administration, reaching peak plasma concentrations within 0.75 to 1.5 hours, and is extensively metabolized, primarily by CYP3A4. Its prolonged duration of action allows for once-daily dosing, providing sustained relief from allergic symptoms without significant central nervous system effects.
