Abstract
Histamine is found in a variety of bodily fluids, platelets, leucocytes, basophils and mast cells in the human body. Mast cells and circulating basophiles store the majority of histamine. Moreover, histamine functions as a neurotransmitter in a variety of cellular physiological processes, including the release of stomach acid, inflammation, allergic reactions and central and peripheral neurotransmission. Histamine is a substance produced by mast cells in the immune system, commonly associated with allergic reactions and their symptoms. Antihistamines are medications designed to counteract the effects of histamine released by the body during allergic responses. Antihistamines block the action of histamine, thereby reducing or alleviating allergy symptoms. The majority of allergic conditions stem from substances such as airborne pollens (from weeds, grass and trees), mites, cockroaches, house dust, animal fur and fungal spores etc., Herbal remedies are increasingly employed to address diverse ailments and enhance various conditions with minimal adverse effects. Antihistaminic effects can be evaluated using extracts from plants or synthetic medications.
