Precautions and warnings

This medicine may make it unsafe to drive or use machines. Use with caution in older adults. Do not use during the first trimester of pregnancy, and check with your doctor before using while breastfeeding.

Drug Interactions

Antidepressants and anxiety medications can increase the sedative effects of mizolastine. Strong inhibitors or drugs that are processed by the liver in the same way as mizolastine (such as cimetidine, ciclosporin, or nifedipine) can change how mizolastine is broken down.

Warning: There is a higher risk of serious heart rhythm problems if mizolastine is taken with drugs that lengthen the QT interval, like class I and III antiarrhythmics. Taking mizolastine with certain antibiotics (such as macrolides) or antifungal medicines (such as imidazoles) can increase its levels in the blood.

Contraindications

Serious heart or liver problems; imbalance of body salts, especially low potassium levels; known or suspected QT prolongation (a heart rhythm issue). Also, if you have a very slow heartbeat that is considered medically important.

Mode of actions

Mizolastine is a type of antihistamine that does not make you sleepy. It works by blocking histamine H1-receptors found in the digestive system, blood vessels, and breathing passages. It also helps to stabilize mast cells, which can help prevent allergic reactions.
