  3. Norketotifen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norketotifen

    Norketotifen is a pharmaceutical medication which is not yet approved for use and is undergoing clinical trials. It is a biologically active demethylated metabolite of ketotifen and has a similar potency as ketotifen as an antihistamine H 1 medication and a mast cell stabilizer, yet is devoid of severe sedative effects of ketotifen, potentially allowing for higher doses to be administered ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/10-Hydroxyketotifen

    10-Hydroxyketotifen (WR621365) [1] is a biologically inactive metabolite of ketotifen. [2] [3] [4] Despite the mainstream scientific consensus that 10-hydroxyketotifen is a biologically inactive compound, its pharmacological properties are not very well studied outside the context of ketotifen, therefore, 10-hydroxyketotifen may still possess biological activity similarly to norketotifen ...

  6. H1 antagonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H1_antagonist

    H 1 antagonists, also called H 1 blockers, are a class of medications that block the action of histamine at the H 1 receptor, helping to relieve allergic reactions.Agents where the main therapeutic effect is mediated by negative modulation of histamine receptors are termed antihistamines; other agents may have antihistaminergic action but are not true antihistamines.

  7. H3 receptor antagonist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H3_receptor_antagonist

    An H 3 receptor antagonist is a type of antihistaminic drug used to block the action of histamine at H 3 receptors.. Unlike the H 1 and H 2 receptors which have primarily peripheral actions, but cause sedation if they are blocked in the brain, H 3 receptors are primarily found in the brain and are inhibitory autoreceptors located on histaminergic nerve terminals, which modulate the release of ...

  8. Cyproheptadine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyproheptadine

    There is evidence supporting its use for allergies, but second generation antihistamines such as ketotifen and loratadine have shown equal results with fewer side effects. [9] It is also used as a preventive treatment against migraine. In a 2013 study the frequency of migraine was dramatically reduced in patients within 7 to 10 days after ...
