Work
The drug selectively inhibits the peripheral H1 receptors thereby reducing the histamine levels in the body. It specifically acts on allergies caused in the stomach and intestine, blood vessels and airways leading to the lung. It also blocks another chemical messenger (leukotriene), thus reduces swelling in nose and airway passage. Hence altogether relieves symptoms.
