Description

N-Carbethoxy-4-hydroxypiperidine is a drug substance that is a h1 receptor antagonist. It is used as an antihistamine to treat the symptoms of hay fever and other allergic reactions. N-Carbethoxy-4-hydroxypiperidine is available in two enantiomers, or mirror images, which are labelled S and R. The R enantiomer is more potent than the S enantiomer for inhibiting histamine h1 receptors. This drug has been shown to inhibit the growth of tuberculosis bacteria in cell culture and animal models, but not against Mycobacterium avium complex. N-Carbethoxy-4-hydroxypiperidine has also been shown to have significant antibacterial activity against Clostridium perfringens with minimal toxicity in mice.
