How does the active ingredient of the medicine work?

The active ingredient helps with allergies and soothes itching. It suppresses the effect of the body's own substance histamine in two ways: Firstly, it inhibits the release of histamine from the mast cells (special defence cells) of the blood and tissue; secondly, it displaces histamine from its binding sites. As a tissue hormone and a type of messenger substance, histamine plays an important role in the development of inflammation and allergic reactions.
