Is bilastine a corticosteroid?

No, bilastine is not a corticosteroid, but an antihistamine used mainly for the treatment of allergy symptoms, such as allergic rhinoconjunctivitis and urticaria.

Does bilastine make you sleepy?

One of the main advantages of bilastine is that, unlike first-generation antihistamines, it does not tend to cause drowsiness in most cases. The reason bilastine does not make you sleepy is because it does not cross the blood-brain barrier in significant amounts, reducing the possibility of affecting the central nervous system and therefore causing drowsiness.

Does it make you fat?

Bilastine is a second-generation antihistamine that is not associated with weight gain. The fattening effect has been found mainly in first generation antihistamines because, by acting on the central nervous system, it may stimulate appetite.
