NCIt definition : A piperidine histamine H1-receptor antagonist with anti-allergic properties and without
sedative effects. Loratadine blocks the H1 histamine receptor and prevents the symptoms
that are caused by histamine activity on capillaries, bronchial smooth muscle, and
gastrointestinal smooth muscle, including vasodilatation, increased capillary permeability,
bronchoconstriction, and spasmodic contraction of gastrointestinal smooth muscle.
Loratadine does not cross the blood-brain barrier and does not cause central nervous
system effects.;
