Antihistamine. Anti-inflammatory.
By using loratadine-betamethasone in combination, tablets combine the anti-inflammatory and antiallergic effect of the corticosteroid (betamethasone) with the nonsedating antihistamine (loratadine).
Loratadine is a potent long-acting tricyclic antihistamine with selective peripheral H1-receptor antagonistic activity.
Glucocorticosteroids eg, betamethasone, cause profound and varied metabolic effects and modify the body's immune response to diverse stimuli.
Betamethasone has high glucocorticosteroid activity and slight mineralocorticosteroid activity.
