Ebastine is not available or is not popular in USA. We have Loratidine , which is also H1 Anti Histamine just like Ebastine.

There are some studies which say that Loratidine slows growth of Lung cancer and Malignant Melanoma. Something to be explored in Prostate cancer area too.

Further to the potential anti cancer properties of anti histamines:

However, whenever I've suggest anything like this to my oncologist or other medics I get the "we know best" attitude. When treated with such intransigence, I simply plough my own furrow.

Ebastine can be purchased on line in the UK without a prescription. I purchase stuff from the US that we're not allowed in the UK with little problem - crazy!
