Levocabastine is a type of antihistamine medication used to treat the symptoms of allergic rhinitis (hay fever) and other allergies. It is available as an eye drop, nasal spray, and tablets. The active ingredient in levocabastine is levocabastine hydrochloride, which works by blocking the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. It is a prescription medication and should only be used under the supervision of a doctor or pharmacist. Levocabastine is generally well tolerated but may cause side effects such as headache, drowsiness, dry mouth, and nausea.
