MECHANISM OF ACTION:
Fexofenadine, an active metabolite of terfenadine, is a competitive peripheral histamine H1-receptor antagonist on effector cells in the GI tract, blood vessels, and respiratory tract. Absorption: absorbed rapidly from the GI tract (oral); peak plasma concentrations after 2-3-hour distribution: enters breast milk. 60-70% bound to plasma proteins. Metabolism: intestinal mucosa (5% of total dose); hepatic (0.5-1.5% of dose). Excretion: mainly via feces, via urine (10% of dose); 14 hr. (elimination half-life; may be prolonged in renal impairment). Montelukast inhibits bronchoconstriction due to antigen challenge. Montelukast is a selective leukotriene receptor antagonist of the cysteinyl leukotriene CysLT1 receptor. The cysteinyl leukotrienes (LTC 4, LTD 4, LTE 4) are arachidonic acid metabolism products released from various cells, including mast cells and eosinophils.
