CAS 3978-86-7: Azatadine maleate
Description:Azatadine maleate is an antihistamine primarily used for the treatment of allergic conditions. It is classified as a first-generation antihistamine, which means it can cross the blood-brain barrier and may cause sedation as a side effect. The substance is a salt formed from azatadine and maleic acid, enhancing its solubility and stability. Azatadine itself acts as an antagonist to histamine H1 receptors, thereby alleviating symptoms associated with allergies, such as sneezing, itching, and runny nose. In addition to its antihistaminic properties, azatadine may exhibit anticholinergic effects, which can contribute to its therapeutic profile but also lead to side effects like dry mouth and urinary retention. The compound is typically administered orally and is available in various formulations. As with many medications, it is essential to consider potential interactions with other drugs and contraindications in specific populations, such as pregnant or breastfeeding individuals. Overall, azatadine maleate is a valuable option in managing allergic reactions, though its sedative effects necessitate caution in certain situations.
