Pharmacological action

Desal – antiallergic agent – histamine H1 receptor blocker.

Long-acting antihistamine, peripheral histamine H1 receptor blocker. Desloratadine is the primary active metabolite of loratadine. Inhibits a cascade of allergic inflammation reactions, incl. release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including interleukins IL-4, IL-6, IL-8, IL-13, release of pro-inflammatory chemokines, production of superoxide anions by activated polymorphonuclear neutrophils, adhesion and chemotaxis of eosinophils, isolation of adhesion molecules such as P-IgE, indirect release of histamine, prostaglandin D2 and leukotriene C4.

Thus, it prevents the development and facilitates the course of allergic reactions, possesses antipruritic and antiexudative action, reduces capillary permeability, prevents the development of tissue edema, smooth muscle spasm.
