Acrivastine
DrugBank Accession Number
DB09488
Background

Acrivastine is a triprolidine analog antihistamine indicated for the treatment of allergies and hay fever. As an H1 receptor antagonist, it functions by blocking the action of histamine at this receptor thereby preventing the symptoms associated with histamine release such as pruritis, vasodilation, hypotension, edema, bronchoconstriction, and tachycardia.

Acrivastine is currently available in combination with pseudoephedrine as the FDA-approved product Semprex-D.

Absorption

Acrivastine was absorbed rapidly from the combination capsule following oral administration and was as bioavailable as a solution of acrivastine. After administration of SEMPREX-D Capsules, maximum plasma acrivastine concentrations were achieved at 1.14 ± 0.23 hour.

Volume of distribution

0.46 ± 0.05 L/kg

Protein binding

Acrivastine binding to human plasma proteins was 50 ± 2.0%.

Metabolism
Not Available
Route of elimination

A mass balance study in 7 healthy volunteers showed that acrivastine is primarily eliminated by the kidneys. Over a 72-hour collection period, about 84% of the administered total radioactivity was recovered in urine and about 13% in feces, for a combined recovery of about 97%.

Half-life

The mean terminal half-life for acrivastine was 1.9 ± 0.3 hours following single oral doses and increased to 3.5 ± 1.9 hours at steady state. The terminal half-life for the propionic acid metabolite was 3.8 ± 1.4 hours.

Clearance

2.9 ± 0.7 mL/min/kg

Interactions

Drug Interactions
This information should not be interpreted without the help of a healthcare provider. If you believe you are experiencing an interaction, contact a healthcare provider immediately. The absence of an interaction does not necessarily mean no interactions exist.
DrugInteraction
AbacavirAbacavir may decrease the excretion rate of Acrivastine which could result in a higher serum level.
AceclofenacAceclofenac may decrease the excretion rate of Acrivastine which could result in a higher serum level.
AcemetacinAcemetacin may decrease the excretion rate of Acrivastine which could result in a higher serum level.
AcetaminophenAcetaminophen may decrease the excretion rate of Acrivastine which could result in a higher serum level.
AcetazolamideAcetazolamide may increase the excretion rate of Acrivastine which could result in a lower serum level and potentially a reduction in efficacy.
