Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
Adults and adolescents (over 12 years of age): The recommended dose is 10 mg (one tablet) once a day, with or without food. Paediatric patients: Rupatadine 10 mg Tablets is not recommended for use in children below age 12. In children aged 2 to 11 years, the administration of rupatadine 1 mg/ml oral solution is recommended.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
platelet-activating factor stimulated a statistically significant release of histamine, interleukin-8, and tumor necrosis factor (0.001-0.1 μmol/L). Pretreatment with rupatadine (25 μmol/L) for 10 minutes inhibited this effect.
