Clinical Pharmacology:

Clinical pharmacology clemastine fumarate is an antihistamine with anticholinergic (drying) and sedative side effects. antihistamines appear to compete with histamine for cell receptor sites on effector cells. the inherently long duration of antihistaminic effects of clemastine fumarate has been demonstrated in wheal and flare studies. in normal human subjects who received histamine injections over a 24-hour period, the antihistaminic activity of clemastine reached a peak at 5 to 7 hours, persisted for 10 to 12 hours and, in some cases, for as long as 24 hours. pharmacokinetic studies in man utilizing 3 h and 14 c labeled compound demonstrates that: clemastine is rapidly and nearly completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, peak plasma concentrations are attained in 2 to 4 hours, and urinary excretion is the major mode of elimination.
