Cephulac Indication
As an ophthalmic for the temporary relief of the signs and symptoms of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis. Also used as a nasal spray for allergic rhinitis.
Cephulac Pharmacology
Levocabastine is a selective histamine H1-receptor antagonist exerting inhibitory effects on the release of chemical mediators from mast cells and on the chemotaxis of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and eosinophils. Both histamine and antigens induced conjunctivitis can be inhibited by levocabastine. Levocabastine can also reduce symptoms of allergic rhinitis by preventing an increase in vascular permeability of nasal mucosa.
Cephulac Absorption
After instillation in the eye, levocabastine is systemically absorbed, albeit at low levels.
Cephulac side effects and Toxicity
Adverse effects include visual disturbances, dry mouth, cough, nausea, eyelid edema and lacrimation.
