Rupatadine is a new agent for the management of diseases with allergic inflammatory conditions. Rupatadine is a dual inhibitor of H1- and platelet-activating factor (PAF)-receptors and possesses a broader profile of antiallergic properties inhibiting allergy target cells and secretion of different mediators involved in the early- and late-phase of allergic response. Rupatadine is a real example of poly-functional anti-allergic remedy.
