L-Hist 5 mg tablet composition includes Levocetirizine, a second-generation antihistamine that selectively blocks the H1 histamine receptor. Histamine is a substance produced by the body in response to allergens, which triggers the symptoms of allergic reactions such as itching, sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes and hives.

When levocetirizine binds to the H1 histamine receptor, it blocks the binding of histamine and prevents it from causing an allergic response. This action reduces the release of other inflammatory mediators, such as leukotrienes and cytokines, which contribute to the symptoms of allergies.

Levocetirizine also has a high affinity for the H1 histamine receptor and a low ability to cross the blood-brain barrier, which means that it has a minimal sedative effect compared to older antihistamines. It makes it suitable for long-term use and for treating allergies in people who need to remain alert and focused, such as students or professionals.

Overall, the molecular mechanism of levocetirizine involves blocking the H1 histamine receptor, reducing the release of other inflammatory mediators, and relieving the symptoms of allergies.
