Mechanism of action

Antiallergic.Blocker histamine H1-receptor groups of piperazine derivatives. It is the main carboxylated metabolite of hydroxyzine. Cetirizine has more polar (less lipophilic) groups attached to the side chain of ethylamine, which reduces its entry into the central nervous system, increases selectivity in relation to histamine H1-receptors, and also reduces the side effects associated with anticholinergic activity.
The drug inhibits the migration of eosinophils and inhibits the factors of eosinophil chemotaxis. Significantly reduces the accumulation of eosinophils in the skin, as well as the skin resolving response to histamine, as measured by the size of the blister and hyperemia. In addition, the drug inhibits other cells of the inflammatory infiltrate (including neutrophils).
Parlazin prevents the development and facilitates the course of allergic reactions, has antipruritic and anti-exudative action.Reduces capillary permeability, prevents the development of tissue edema, relieves spasm of smooth muscles. The effect of the drug begins 20 minutes after administration, the maximum effect develops after 1 hour, the duration of action is 24 hours.
