Abstract: A method of treating and/or preventing allergic and inflammatory conditions of the skin or upper and lower airway passages, e.g. seasonal allergic rhinitis, perennial allergic rhinitis, or chronic idopathic urticaria, in a human more 12 years old, by administering an amount of desloratadine, e.g. 2×2.5 mg or 5 mg/day for a time sufficient to produce a geometric mean steady state maximum plasma concentration of desloratadine in the range of about 2.90 ng/mL to about 4.54 ng/mL, or a arithmetic mean steady state maximum plasma concentration of desloratadine in the range of about 3.2 ng/mL to about 5.0 ng/mL is disclosed.

Abstract: The use of desloratadine for the preparation of a medicament for treating and/or preventing allergic and inflammatory conditions of the skin or upper and lower airway passages in a human while avoiding the food effect associated with non-sedating antihistamines, e.g., loratadine or fexofenadine is disclosed.

Abstract: A method of treating and/or preventing allergic and inflammatory conditions of the skin or upper and lower airway passages, e.g. seasonal allergic rhinitis, pernninal allergic rhinitis, or chronic idopathic urticaria, in a human more 12 years old, by administering an amount of desloratadine, e.g. 2×2.5 mg or 5 mg/day for a time sufficient to produce a geometric mean steady state maximum plasma concentration of desloratadine in the range of about 2.90 ng/mL to about 4.54 ng/mL, or a arithmetic mean steady state maximum plasma concentration of desloratadine in the range of about 3.2 ng/mL to about 5.0 ng/mL is disclosed.

Abstract: An assembly for coupling a Hewlett-Packard Model HP 7673A autosampler mounted on a mounting plate to a Varian VISTA 6000 Model gas chromatograph having an injection site, includes a first bracket secured to the gas chromatograph on one side of the injection site and a second bracket secured to the gas chromatograph on the opposite side of the injection site, with the mounting plate secured to and mounted on the first and second brackets so as to permit access to the injection site by the autosampler; and securement screws for securing the mounting plate on the brackets.
