Bepotastine Besilate

Bepotastine is in phase 4 clinical trial in patients with Allergic Conjunctivitis.

5.7 (pIC50) [1], 5.7 (pIC50) [1], 5.7 (pIC50) [1], 5.7 (pIC50) [1], 5.7 (pIC50) [1], 5.7 (pIC50) [1]

Bepotastine (0.8 mg/kg) administrated in WT and P-gp KO mice results in the plasma total concentrations 580 ng/mL and 467 ng/mL at 6 min after dosing, respectively, and the plasma protein binding with 41.1% and 45.9%. The absorption of [14C]Bepotastine from the proximal region in the presence and absence of verapamil is 63.0% and 72.4%, respectively, and that from the distal region is 10.9% and 62.7%, respectively. [2] Bepotastine besilate (10 mg/kg) inhibits scratching induced by an intradermal injection of histamine (100 nmol/site), but not serotonin (100 nmol/site). Bepotastine besilate (1 mg/kg-10 mg/kg, oral) dose-dependently suppresses scratching induced by substance P (100 nmol/site) and leukotriene B(4) (0.03 nmol/site). [3] Bepotastine besilate significantly inhibits conjunctival vascular hyperpermeability in a dose-dependent manner in guinea pig allergic conjunctivitis models with maximal effect for Bepotastine besilate 1.5%. [4] Bepotastine (3 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg) effectively inhibits the compound 48/80-induced scratching behavior of BALB/c mice 1 hour after oral administration. Bepotastine (10 mg/kg) also significantly inhibits the scratching behavior and suppresses the serum LTB(4) levels in atopic dermatitis model NC/Nga mice. [5]
