First description of a histamine receptor of class 2 (HRH2) in a protochordate: expression during blastogenesis and role in regulation of ciliary beat frequency [PDF]
Histaminergic receptors belong to the family of seven-transmembrane \u3b1-helix domain receptors classified in mammals into four distinct classes. Despite being widely studied in vertebrates, few data are available on the invertebrate receptors, with ...

Rebound Pruritus and Urticaria After Discontinuation of Chronic Antihistamine Use—A Scoping Review
Rebound pruritus and urticaria have been reported after discontinuation of chronic cetirizine or levocetirizine use only. Symptoms typically occur within 0.5–5 days after stopping therapy and appear more frequently reported in female patients. Re‐initiation of antihistamines is the most commonly effective management strategy, highlighting the need for ...
