Pharmacological action

Pharmacotherapeutic group: antiallergic agent - H1 histamine receptor blocker.

Pharmacological action:

Azelastine, a phthalazinone derivative, is a long-acting antiallergic. Being a selective H1-histamine blocker, it has an antihistamine, anti-allergic and membrane stabilizing effect, reduces capillary permeability and exudation, stabilizes mast cell membranes and prevents the release of biologically active substances (histamine, serotonin, leukotrienes, platelet activating factor, etc.), which cause bronchospasm and contribute to the development of early and late stages of allergic reactions and inflammation. When applied topically, the systemic effect is negligible.

Intranasal administration reduces itching and nasal congestion, sneezing, and rhinorrhea. The weakening of symptoms of allergic rhinitis is noted starting from 15 minutes after application and lasts up to 12 hours or more.

There is no clinically significant effect on the QT (QTc) interval even with prolonged use of high doses of azelastine.

Pharmacokinetics:

Bioavailability after intranasal administration is about 40%.

The maximum concentration (Cmax) in the blood after intranasal administration is achieved after 2-3 hours. When administered intranasally at a daily dose of 0.56 mg of azelastine hydrochloride (one injection in each nasal passage twice a day), the average equilibrium plasma concentration of azelastine hydrochloride in plasma 2 hours after administration is 0.65 ng / ml.

Doubling the total daily dose to 1.12 mg (two injections in each nasal passage twice a day) leads to a stable average plasma concentration of azelastine equal to 1.09 ng / ml.

However, despite the relatively high absorption in patients, systemic exposure after intranasal administration is approximately 8 times lower than after oral administration of a daily dose of 4.4 mg azelastine hydrochloride, which is a therapeutic oral dose for the treatment of allergic rhinitis.

Intranasal administration in patients with allergic rhinitis causes an increase in plasma azelastine levels compared with healthy subjects.

Other pharmacokinetic data studied when administered orally.

Communication with blood proteins 80-90%.

Metabolized in the liver by oxidation using the cytochrome P450 system to form the active metabolite of desmethylazelastine. It is excreted mainly by the kidneys in the form of inactive metabolites.

The half-life (T1 / 2) of azelastine is about 20 hours, its active metabolite desmethylazelastine is about 45 hours.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to azelastine and / or other components of the drug

For allergic rhinitis and rhinoconjunctivitis - children under 6 years of age with vasomotor rhinitis - children under 12 years of age.

Use during pregnancy and lactation

When testing doses many times exceeding the therapeutic range, no evidence of teratogenic effects was obtained in animals, but since there is no experience with azelastine in pregnant and lactating women, the use of azelastine nasal spray during pregnancy, as well as during lactation.
