Clinical Pharmacology

Histamine N blocker1receptors with antiserotinin activity. Moderately blocks serotonin 5HT1-receptors, weakening the effect of mediators of histamine and serotonin allergy. Histamine causes clinical manifestations of allergic inflammation: edema (increased capillary permeability), skin flushing (dilation of blood vessels), itching and pain.

The specific feature of Sequifenadine is that it has an antihistamine effect not only by blocking histamine H1receptors, but also reducing the content of histamine in the tissues by accelerating its destruction by diamine oxidase.

Allergic diseases also increase the level of serotonin in the blood. Serotonin increases blood pressure, causes bronchospasm, increases capillary permeability, enhances the effect of inflammatory mediators - histamine, bradykinin, prostaglandins. Sequifenadine prevents or weakens the spasmogenic effect of histamine and serotonin on the smooth muscles of the bronchi, intestines, blood vessels; violation of capillary permeability and the development of edema.

Sequifenadine has a pronounced antipruritic and antiexudative effect of a prolonged nature.

Affects the immunological reactivity of the organism, reducing the number of B-lymphocytes in the spleen, bone marrow, lymph nodes, and also reduces the increased concentration of immunoglobulins of classes A and G.

Slightly penetrates through the BBB, which explains the absence of a pronounced inhibitory effect on the central nervous system, but in some cases, with individual hypersensitivity, a slight sedation is observed.
