allergy, for example, hay fever or allergy to dust mites). These
symptoms include sneezing, runny, stuffy or
itchy nose, itchy palate, itchy, red or watery eyes and coughing.
Aerius is also used to relieve the symptoms associated with urticaria
(a skin condition caused by an allergy).
These symptoms include itching and hives.
Relief of these symptoms lasts a full day and helps you to resume your
normal daily activities and sleep.

AERIUS® Tablets
Brand of desloratadine
DESCRIPTION: Each AERIUS Tablet contains 5.0 mg of desloratadine.
AERIUS Tablet is a light blue
round tablet, embossed with elongated letters ‘S’ and ‘P’ on
one side and plain on the other. Inactive
Ingredients: dibasic calcium phosphate dihydrate, microcrystalline
cellulose, corn starch, talc, film coat
[containing lactose monohydrate, hypromellose, titanium dioxide,
macrogol 400, indigotin (E132)], clear
coat (containing hypromellose, macrogol 400), carnauba wax, and white
wax.
ACTIONS: Desloratadine is a non-sedating long-acting histamine
antagonist with potent, selective
peripheral H
1
-receptor antagonist activity. Desloratadine has demonstrated
antiallergic, antihistaminic,
and anti-inflammatory activity.
In
addition
to
antihistaminic
activity,
desloratadine
has
demonstrated
antiallergic
and
anti-inflammatory activity from numerous
in vitro
(mainly conducted on cells of human origin) and
in
vivo
studies. These studies have shown that desloratadine inhibits the
broad cascade of events that
initiate and propagate allergic inflammation, including,

the release of proinflammatory cytokines including IL-4, IL-6, IL-8,
IL-13,

the
release
of
important
proinflammatory
chemokines
such
as
RANTES
(Regulated
upon
Activation, Normal T-cell Expressed and Secreted),

superoxide anion production by activated polymorphonuclear
neutrophils,

eosinophil adhesion and chemotaxis,

the expression of the adhesion molecules such as P-selectin,

IgE-dependent release of histamine, prostaglandin (PGD2), and
leukotriene (LTC4),

the acute allergic bronchoconstrictor response and allergic cough in
animal models.
PRECLINICAL TOXICOLOGY: Desloratadine is the primary active metabolite
of loratadine. Non-clinical
studies
conducted
with
desloratadine
and
loratadine
demonstrated
comparable
qualitative
and
quantitative
toxicity
profile
of
desloratadine
and
loratadine
at
comparable
levels
of
exposure
to
desloratadine.
