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 ...
Cetirizine acts as a highly selective antagonist of the histamine H 1 receptor. [3] The K i values for the H 1 receptor are approximately 6 nM for cetirizine, 3 nM for levocetirizine, and 100 nM for dextrocetirizine, indicating that the levorotatory enantiomer is the main active form. [3]

Itching, sneezing, and inflammatory responses are suppressed by antihistamines that act on H1-receptors. [ 2 ] [ 8 ] In 2014, antihistamines such as desloratadine were found to be effective to complement standardized treatment of acne due to their anti-inflammatory properties and their ability to suppress sebum production.
Musk and fellow Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) co-head Vivek Ramaswamy, 39, eventually chimed in and defended H1-B visas, which allow up to some 65,000 guest workers into the US.
The H 1 receptor is a histamine receptor belonging to the family of rhodopsin-like G-protein-coupled receptors.This receptor is activated by the biogenic amine histamine.It is expressed in smooth muscles, on vascular endothelial cells, in the heart, and in the central nervous system.
