CAS 38092-89-6: N-Methyldesloratadine
Description:N-Methyldesloratadine is a chemical compound that serves as an active metabolite of desloratadine, which is an antihistamine used primarily for the treatment of allergic symptoms. It is characterized by its ability to selectively antagonize peripheral H1 histamine receptors, thereby alleviating symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes associated with allergic rhinitis. The compound is known for its low sedative properties, making it suitable for use in non-drowsy formulations. N-Methyldesloratadine is typically administered orally and exhibits a favorable pharmacokinetic profile, including good bioavailability and a relatively long half-life, allowing for once-daily dosing. Its chemical structure includes a piperidine ring and a methyl group, contributing to its pharmacological activity. Additionally, it is generally well-tolerated, with a low incidence of side effects compared to first-generation antihistamines. As with any medication, it is important to consider potential interactions and contraindications when prescribing or using N-Methyldesloratadine.
