Biochem/physiol Actions
Pemirolast potassium is a histamine H1 antagonist and mast cell stabilizer that acts as an antiallergic agent. It Inhibits chemical mediator release from tissue mast cells and has recently also been shown to inhibit the release of peptides including substance P, neurokinin (NK) A, and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) from sensory nerves. It has been used for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis prophylaxis of for pulmonary hypersensitivity reactions to drugs such as paclitaxel

The effect of the simultaneous use of 0.025% levocabastine hydrochloride eye drops (levocabastine) and 0.1% pemirolast potassium ophthalmic solution (pemirolast) on experimental allergic conjunctivitis in rats was investigated. Levocabastine and pemirolast significantly inhibited allergic conjunctivitis compared with the control group
