A multicentre controlled trial of terfenadine, dexchlorpheniramine and placebo in allergic rhinitis
The results of a multicentre double-blind trial are reported in which α-[4-(1,1-dimethylethyl)phenyl]-4-(hydroxydiphenylmethyl)-1-piperidinebut anol (terfenadine, RMI 9918, Triludan®, Teldane®, resp.) and dexchlorpheniramine were compared with placebo in

Molecular Determinants of hERG Channel Block by Terfenadine and Cisapride
Block of cardiac hERG K+ channels by the antihistamine terfenadine and the prokinetic agent cisapride is associated with prolonged ventricular repolarization and an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmia.

Molecular Cloning and Functional Expression of the Equine K+ Channel KV11.1 (Ether à Go-Go-Related/KCNH2 Gene) and the Regulatory Subunit KCNE2 from Equine Myocardium. [PDF]
The KCNH2 and KCNE2 genes encode the cardiac voltage-gated K+ channel KV11.1 and its auxiliary β subunit KCNE2. KV11.1 is critical for repolarization of the cardiac action potential.

QUANTITATIVE DETERMINATION OF TERFENADINE BY PROTON MAGNETIC RESONANCE TECHNIQUE
A simple, rapid and efficient quantitative method has been achieved for the determination of terfenadine powder and its tablet form (Triludan)®. The method is based on comparison between the integration value of the singlet signal of the t-butyl protons,

Generalized Bullous Fixed Drug Eruption Secondary to Levocetirizine: A Lesson Learned! [PDF]
ABSTRACT Fixed drug eruption (FDE) is a unique type of adverse drug eruption characterized by a well‐defined erythematous to violaceous patch that recurs at the same site upon re‐exposure to causative drugs and resolves with hyperpigmentation. This distinct drug reaction is a type IV hypersensitivity reaction that is mediated by memory CD8+ T cells ...
