Azelastine: A Multifaceted Approach to Rhinitis Relief

This article reviews the pharmacological profile and clinical efficacy of azelastine hydrochloride, a pharmacologically distinct H1-receptor antagonist with a broad spectrum of antiallergic and anti-inflammatory activity. Azelastine has established antiallergic and anti-inflammatory effects that go beyond H1-receptor antagonism. The article highlights azelastine's ability to inhibit the synthesis of leukotrienes, kinins, and cytokines, as well as its effects on the generation of superoxide free radicals and the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule 1. The article concludes that azelastine nasal spray is an effective treatment for both seasonal allergic rhinitis and nonallergic vasomotor rhinitis.
