Description

Ketotifen fumarate is an anti-inflammatory drug that belongs to the class of histamine H1 receptor antagonists. It has been shown to be effective in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases, such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Ketotifen fumarate also has biological properties, such as eosinophil cationic protein release inhibition, that are important for its therapeutic effects. In vitro studies have shown that ketotifen fumarate can inhibit h1-receptor mediated responses in a dose-dependent manner. The drug is metabolized by the liver enzyme CYP3A4 and has been shown to interact with other drugs metabolized through this pathway. Ketotifen fumarate is currently being used as a research tool in experimental models of infectious diseases, such as tuberculosis and influenza A virus infection.
