Levocabastine (trade name Livostin or Livocab, depending on the region) is a selective second-generation H₁ receptor antagonist which was discovered at Janssen Pharmaceutica in 1979. It is used for allergic conjunctivitis.^[3]

As well as acting as an antihistamine, levocabastine has also subsequently been found to act as a potent and selective antagonist for the neurotensin receptor NTS₂, and was the first drug used to characterise the different neurotensin subtypes.^[4]^[5] This has made it a useful tool for the study of this receptor.^[6]^[7]^[8]^[9]^[10]

The pharmaceutical drug Bilina is a combination of Levocabastine, benzalkonium chloride, and other components and is typically used in a 0.5 mg/ml suspension as eye-drops, dispensed in 4ml bottles for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis or similar allergic ocular conditions. Another formulation is available as a nasal spray for the management of allergic rhinitis.^[11]^[12]
