Product Description

Fexofenadine HCl (formerly MDL-16455A; Allegra; Terfenidine carboxylate; Telfast) is a potent histamine H1 receptor antagonist (antihistamine agent) used in the treatment of allergy symptoms such as hay fever, nasal congestion, and urticaria. Fexofenadine belongs to the second generation of antihistamines because, in contrast to first-generation antihistamines, it is less able to sedate people by crossing the blood-brain barrier.Fexofenadine has an IC50 value of 95.5 nM and demonstrates a strong, concentration-dependent anti-anaphylactic effect. For the 5-HT2A receptors from the rat caudal artery with a pA2 of 5.2, fexofenadine only exhibits a weak competitive antagonist behavior. On the P-gp-mediated secretion of Fexofenadine, verapamil's half-life (IC50) is 8.44 mM.

Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Histamine H1 receptor ( IC50 = 246 nM )
ln Vitro

In vitro activity: Fexofenadine has an IC50 value of 95.5 nM and demonstrates a strong, concentration-dependent anti-anaphylactic effect. For the 5-HT2A receptors from the rat caudal artery with a pA2 of 5.2, fexofenadine only exhibits a weak competitive antagonist behavior. On the Papp of fexofenadine in both directions in the Caco-2 cell model, all four P-gp inhibitors exhibit a strong, concentration-dependent effect.[1] On the P-gp-mediated secretion of Fexofenadine, verapamil's half-life (IC50) is 8.44 mM.[2] In the rabbit left ventricular wedge preparation, fed at doses greater than 100 times its free TPC, fedofenadine significantly increases the QT and Tp-e intervals and receives a significant TdP score.[3].

ln Vivo
Fexofenadine exhibits negligible metabolism in rats as evidenced by its unchanged excretion in urine, bile, and the gastrointestinal tract, rendering it a perfect probe for researching transport mechanisms. Coadministration of Fexofenadine with Ketoconazole increases the oral exposure of Fexofenadine by 187% in rats. On the other hand, rats given Fexofenadine in combination with either orange juice or apple juice experience a 31% or 22% reduction in oral exposure to the drug. Fexofenadine oral exposure is further reduced by increasing the amount of orange or apple juice given, by 40% and 28%, respectively.[4] The clearance of Fexofenadine from the biliary system (17 ml/min/kg) in mice makes up nearly 60% of the total clearance (30 ml/min/kg). Knockout mice of Mdr1a/1b P-gp does not affect the biliary excretion clearance with regard to both plasma and liver concentrations, whereas the absence of P-gp causes a 6-fold increase in the plasma concentration and 3-fold higher brain-to-plasma concentration ratio after oral administration.[5]

Additional Infomation
Fexofenadine hydrochloride is a diarylmethane.
Fexofenadine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of fexofenadine, a carboxylated metabolic derivative of terfenadine and second generation, long-lasting selective histamine H1 receptor antagonist, with antihistaminic activity. Upon administration, fexofenadine competitively binds of peripheral H1-receptors in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, blood vessels, and bronchial smooth muscle. This prevents binding of histamine to peripheral H1-receptors and prevents their activation. This prevents a histamine-mediated allergic reaction. Fexofenadine does not cross the blood-brain-barrier (BBB).

Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution.

Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (4.65 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 900 μL of corn oil and mix evenly.

 (Please use freshly prepared in vivo formulations for optimal results.)
Preparing Stock Solutions 1 mg 5 mg 10 mg
1 mM 1.8583 mL 9.2916 mL 18.5832 mL
5 mM 0.3717 mL 1.8583 mL 3.7166 mL
10 mM 0.1858 mL 0.9292 mL 1.8583 mL

*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.

Calculator

Molarity Calculator allows you to calculate the mass, volume, and/or concentration required for a solution, as detailed below:

  • Calculate the Mass of a compound required to prepare a solution of known volume and concentration
  • Calculate the Volume of solution required to dissolve a compound of known mass to a desired concentration
  • Calculate the Concentration of a solution resulting from a known mass of compound in a specific volume
An example of molarity calculation using the molarity calculator is shown below:
What is the mass of compound required to make a 10 mM stock solution in 5 ml of DMSO given that the molecular weight of the compound is 350.26 g/mol?
  • Enter 350.26 in the Molecular Weight (MW) box
  • Enter 10 in the Concentration box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
