Indication

Rupadin 10mg Tablet contains 'Rupatadine' which belongs to a class of 'anti-histamine or anti-allergic drugs. Rupadin 10mg Tablet is used in the treatment of allergic conditions, such as allergic rhinitis and urticaria, and works by reducing a chemical substance called histamine, which is responsible for causing allergic symptoms of itching, sneezing, runny nose, swelling, and rashes.

Pharmacology

A long-acting, non-sedative antagonist of histamine H1 receptors is rupatadine. Furthermore, it combats the platelet-activating factor (PAF). Histamine and PAF both have the ability to constrict the airways, which increases vascular permeability and serves as a mediator of the inflammatory process. Rupatadine also inhibits the release of cytokines, particularly tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFa), in human mastocytes and monocytes. These additional anti-allergic effects include the prevention of mast cell degranulation caused by immunological and non-immunological stimuli. Ltd.
