Pharmacology

Bilastine is a potent, effective, non-sedating, long-acting histamine antagonist with selective & high affinity to H1 receptor (3 times higher than Cetirizine and 5 times higher than Fexofenadine). Even at a high concentration, Bilastine does not show affinity for the 30 other receptors including muscarinic, serotonergic, dopaminergic and noradrenergic receptors, for the other histamine receptor subtypes (H2, H3 and H4). It shows excellent safety profile and very favorable pharmacokinetic characteristics. Bilastine doesn’t undergo any metabolism to be active. Bilastine is excreted by feces (non -systemic) & urine (systemic) approximately 66.35% & 28.31% respectively.

Dosage & Administration

Adults & adolescents (12 years of age and over) : 20 mg tablet once daily for symptomatic relief of allergic rhinitis, urticaria and allergic rhinoconjunctivitis. The maximum recommended daily dose is 20 mg Bilastine (1 tablet) and should not be exceeded. If a dose is missed, the next scheduled dose should be taken. An extra dose should not be taken. 20 mg Bilastine tablet (1 tablet) once daily should be swallowed with water on an empty stomach to achieve optimal exposure to Bilastine.

Interaction

Concomitant use of BlasTine with ketoconazole, erythromycin, cyclosporine or diltiazem increases the concentration of BlasTine. But these changes do not appear to affect the safety profile of any of the drugs. Intake of alcohol and 20 mg BlasTine shows same psychomotor performance similar to that of alcohol and placebo. Concomitant intake of BlasTine 20 mg and lorazepam 3 mg for 8 days did not potentiate the depressant CNS effects of lorazepam.

Contraindications

Bilastine is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients of the tablet.
