Astemizole
Astemizole is a long-acting, non-sedating second generation antihistamine used in the treatment of allergy symptoms. It was withdrawn from market by the manufacturer in 1999 due to the potential to cause arrhythmias at high doses, especially when when taken with CYP inhibitors or grapefruit juice.

Astemizole also shows potent hERG K+ channel blocking activity with an IC50 of 0.9 nM. Astemizole has antipruritic effects[1][2].
