Pharmacological properties

Pharmacodynamics

Desloratadine, the primary active metabolite of loratadine, is a long-acting H ₁ histamine receptor blocker.

The therapy allows you to prevent the appearance, and also facilitates the course of allergic reactions. Ezlor has an antipruritic and anti-exudative effect, reduces capillary permeability, prevents smooth muscle spasm and tissue edema.

The drug does not affect the central nervous system, practically does not have a sedative effect (does not cause drowsiness), does not cause prolongation of the QT interval on the ECG, does not change the speed of psychomotor reactions.

Ezlor develops within 30 minutes after oral administration, and lasts 24 hours.

Pharmacokinetics

After oral administration, desloratadine is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Determined plasma concentrations in the blood are reached within 30 minutes, the time to reach the maximum concentration is approximately 3 hours.

Binds to plasma proteins - in the range from 83 to 87%. When used for 14 days 1 time a day, 5–20 mg in adults and adolescents, there is no clinically significant accumulation of the substance. Simultaneous food intake / consumption of grapefruit juice does not affect the distribution of desloratadine (when taken once a day at a dose of 7.5 mg). The substance does not penetrate through the blood-brain barrier.

Desloratadine undergoes intensive metabolism in the liver by hydroxylation to form 3-OH-desloratadine combined with glucuronide. It is not an inhibitor of CYP3A4 and CYP2D6 isoenzymes, as well as a substrate / inhibitor of P-glycoprotein.

A small amount of the dose taken is excreted unchanged: by the kidneys - less than 2%; through the intestines - less than 7%. The half-life (T _1/2) varies in the range of 20-30 hours (on average - 27 hours).
