  <description>Levocetrizine is an organic compound with the formula C21H25ClN2O3 and an average molecular weight of 388.89 g/mol. Levocetrizine belongs to the diphenylmethanes, a subclass of benzene and substituted derivatives within the organic compounds. It acts as an antagonist and inhibitor of the Histamine H1 receptor (HRH1).

This compound is found in or released from three recorded sources, including antihistamines within healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products, as well as tobacco product cases and other smoking requisites within household cleaning and consumer products. Recorded exposure routes for levocetrizine include oral, topical, and transdermal administration.</description>
