Loratadine (INN) is a second-generation H1 histamine antagonist drug used to treat allergies. Structurally, it is closely related to tricyclic antidepressants such as imipramine, and distantly related to the atypical antipsychotic quetiapine.It is marketed by Schering-Ploughunder several trade names such as Claritin, and by Shionogi in Japan. Loratadine is available as a generic drug and is marketed for its non-sedating properties. In a version named Claritin-D or Clarinase, the substance is combined with pseudoephedrine, a decongestant; this makes it useful for colds as well as allergies (ehsan pakcik Wikipedia)
Ethyl 4-(8-chloro-5,6-dihydro-11H-benzo[5,6]cyclohepta[1,2-b]pyridin-11-ylidene)-1-piperidinecarboxylate
Faham??? Ok, Yanie pun x faham...dah lama tinggal kimia...So bukak punya bukak page lain, jumpa la 1 page ni....lengkap dengan explanation segala bagai....
How does Loratadine work? What will it do for me?
Loratadine belongs to the class of medications called second-generation antihistamines, specifically the class known ashistamine receptor antagonists. It works by blocking the action of one of the body's natural chemicals known ashistamine. Histamine is responsible for many of the symptoms caused by allergies.
Loratadine is used for the relief of symptoms associated with seasonal allergies, including sneezing, itchy and runny nose, and tearing and redness of the eyes. It is also used for the relief of symptoms associated with allergic skin conditions, including chronic hives and other skin disorders. Loratadine tablets are also used for the relief of symptoms associated with year-round allergies. Loratadine usually starts working within 2 hours and lasts for 24 hours.
How should I use Loratadine?
Tablets: For adults and children 12 years of age and older, the recommended dose of loratadine tablets is 10 mg once daily. The regular tablets may be taken with or without food. The rapid-dissolving tablets should be taken on an empty stomach. Water or other liquids are not necessary with the rapid-dissolving tablets as they will melt instantly on the tongue.
What side effects are possible with Loratadine?
Many medications can cause side effects. A side effect is an unwanted response to a medication when it is taken in normal doses. Side effects can be mild or severe, temporary or permanent.
The following side effects have been reported by at least 1% of people taking this medication. Many of these side effects can be managed, and some may go away on their own over time.- diarrhea
