Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics

The active component of this drug prevents development and greatly facilitates the manifestation of allergic reactions. Desloratadine is characterized by antiallergic, antipruritic and anti-exsudative action. In addition, the permeability of capillaries decreases, which prevents the development of swelling of the tissues. The drug does not have a strong sedative effect, so its use in therapeutic doses does not have a significant effect on the rate of psychomotor reactions.
Inside the body desloratadine is fully absorbed from the digestive tract. The concentration of active substance in the blood is determined after half an hour. The maximum concentration of desloratadine in the blood plasma is reached after 30 minutes. The bioavailability of the component is proportional to the dosage.
Desloratadine and 3-hydroxydesloratodine bind to 83-89% of plasma proteins. Simultaneous consumption of food or fruit juice does not affect the bioavailability or distribution of desloratadine. The penetration of this component through the BBB has not been established. The metabolism of the substance is carried out in the liver. Excretion from the body takes place mainly as a glucuronide compound and a small part in an unchanged form with the help of kidneys and intestines.
