Urtin Tablet 10 mg contains Ebastine 10 mg, a second-generation antihistamine used for the treatment of allergic conditions. Ebastine selectively blocks histamine H1 receptors, effectively reducing allergy symptoms such as sneezing, itching, nasal congestion, runny nose, and watery eyes.

Urtin Tablet 10 mg is commonly prescribed for allergic rhinitis (seasonal or perennial), chronic urticaria (hives), and other histamine-mediated allergic reactions. Its second-generation profile ensures minimal sedation and drowsiness, making it suitable for daytime use while providing long-lasting relief from allergy symptoms.

Composition

• Ebastine 10 mg per tablet

Mechanism of Action

Ebastine, the active ingredient in Urtin Tablet 10 mg, works by:

1. Selective H1 receptor antagonism – Prevents histamine from binding to H1 receptors in the respiratory tract, skin, and mucous membranes, reducing allergic symptoms such as itching, swelling, and redness.

2. Peripheral action – Acts mainly outside the central nervous system, reducing the likelihood of sedation commonly seen with first-generation antihistamines.

3. Long-lasting effect – Provides 24-hour symptom relief with once-daily dosing due to its active metabolite, carebastine.

4. Anti-inflammatory support – Reduces histamine-mediated inflammation in tissues affected by allergic reactions.

This mechanism ensures rapid, effective, and safe control of allergy symptoms, improving patient comfort and quality of life.
