What is this drug.? I found some creme for arthritis that says this is main ingredient. It is called Australian Dream. ## Hi Cecelia, Histamine dihydrochloride, the active ingredient in Australian Dream arthritis pain relief cream, works through "vasodilation".

I am a 68 year old female with arthritic aches and pains. I saw an ad on TV about Australian Dream Cream and decided I would try it. I thought it was a harmless rub, as most of the others, but I was drawn to the money back guarantee. Well, after using it just for one night before bed I experienced a severe drop in my blood pressure. I awakened lightheaded and took my BP as I do each AM when I awaken. Well when it registered as 74/50/67 I became alarmed. I looked up this drug and was enlightened as low BP is a side effect. I will not use this again and I plan on returning it for a refund.

Sorry about the bad experience you had...

well please can u send me for which the Levokast,Pankind-D,o2 tablets are used in brief. ## Hello, I'm not exactly sure what you are asking, but I'll provide some information for Levokast below. I haven't been able to find any information for Pankind- D. Levokast (as levocetirizine dihydrochloride) is a third-generation non-sedative antihistamine, developed from the second-generation antihistamine cetirizine. Chemically, levocetirizine is the active enantiomer of cetirizine. It is the R-enantiomer of the cetirizine racemate. Levocetirizine works by blocking histamine receptors. It does not prevent the actual release of histamine from mast cells, but prevents it binding to its receptors. This in turn prevents the release of other allergy chemicals and increased blood supply t...
