Clemastine is rapidly absorbed from the ] and peak plasma concentrations are attained in 2–4 hours. Antihistamines are thought to be metabolized in the liver, mostly by mono-/didemethylation and glucuronide conjugation.

Clemastine is a selective histamine H1 antagonist. It binds to the histamine H1 receptor, thus blocking the action of ] histamine, which leads to temporary relief of the negative symptoms caused by histamine. |
