Terfenadine
A second-generation H1 antihistamine, synthesised in 1973 and marketed from the 1980s for allergic rhinitis and hives; in the 1990s it was replaced by its active metabolite, fexofenadine. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities and other impurities.
Did you know?It was first made as a potential tranquilliser, but it failed because it does not cross the blood-brain barrier: that is exactly why it became the first antihistamine that does not cause drowsiness.
