Astemizole is a second-generation antihistamine used to treat allergic conditions such as rhinitis and urticaria. It works by blocking histamine H1 receptors. However, it has been withdrawn in many countries due to its potential to cause cardiac arrhythmias by prolonging the QT interval. It is now largely replaced by safer alternatives.
