Brompheniramine oral elixir

What is brompheniramine elixir?

BROMPHENIRAMINE (Bromphen®, Dimetane®) is an antihistamine. It is used to relieve or prevent the symptoms of hay fever (seasonal rhinitis), hives (rash and itching) and other types of allergy. It is also used to relieve symptoms of runny nose from colds (rhinitis). Generic brompheniramine oral elixir is available.

What should I tell my health care provider before I take this medicine?

They need to know if you have any of these conditions:
• asthma or other lung disease
• glaucoma or other eye disease
• heart disease
• high or low blood pressure
• liver disease
• pain or difficulty passing urine
• prostate trouble
• seizures
• stomach or intestinal problems
• thyroid disease
• wear contact lenses
• an unusual or allergic reaction to brompheniramine, other medicines, foods, dyes, or preservatives
• pregnant or trying to become pregnant
• breast-feeding

How should I use this medicine?

Take brompheniramine oral elixir by mouth. Follow the directions on the prescription label. Use a specially marked spoon or container to measure your medicine. Ask your pharmacist if you do not have one; household spoons are not always accurate. Take with food or milk if brompheniramine upsets your stomach. Take your doses at regular intervals. Do not take your medicine more often than directed.

Contact your pediatrician or health care professional regarding the use of this medicine in children. Special care may be needed.

What drug(s) may interact with brompheniramine?

• alcohol
• barbiturate medicines for inducing sleep or treating seizures (convulsions)
• medicines for anxiety or sleeping problems, such as diazepam or temazepam
• medicines for hay fever and other allergies
• medicines for mental depression
• medicines for mental problems and psychotic disturbances
• medicines for movement abnormalities as in Parkinson's disease
• medicines for pain such as codeine, hydrocodone, meperidine, methadone, morphine, oxycodone, propoxyphene, and tramadol
• some medicines for gastrointestinal problems (such as atropine, dicyclomine, glycopyrrolate, hyoscyamine, or propantheline)

Tell your prescriber or health care professional about all other medicines you are taking, including non-prescription medicines, nutritional supplements, or herbal products. Also tell your prescriber or health care professional if you are a frequent user of drinks with caffeine or alcohol, if you smoke, or if you use illegal drugs. These may affect the way your medicine works. Check with your health care professional before stopping or starting any of your medicines.

What should I watch for while taking brompheniramine?

Tell your prescriber or health care professional if your symptoms do not improve in 1 or 2 days.

You may get drowsy or dizzy. Do not drive, use machinery, or do anything that needs mental alertness until you know how brompheniramine affects you. To reduce the risk of dizzy or fainting spells, do not stand or sit up quickly, especially if you are an older patient. Alcohol may increase dizziness and drowsiness. Avoid alcoholic drinks.

Your mouth may get dry. Chewing sugarless gum or sucking hard candy, and drinking plenty of water will help.

Brompheniramine may cause dry eyes and blurred vision. If you wear contact lenses you may feel some discomfort. Lubricating drops may help. See your ophthalmologist if the problem does not go away or is severe.

If you are receiving skin tests for allergies, tell your physician you are using brompheniramine.

What side effects may I notice from using brompheniramine?

Side effects that you should report to your prescriber or health care professional as soon as possible:
• agitation, nervousness, excitability, not able to sleep (these are more likely in children)
• blurred vision
• fainting spells
• irregular heartbeat, palpitations, or chest pain
• muscle or facial twitches
• pain or difficulty passing urine
• seizures (convulsions)

Side effects that usually do not require medical attention (report to your prescriber or health care professional if they continue or are bothersome):
• drowsiness, dizziness
• dry mouth
• headache
• loss of appetite
• stomach upset, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or constipation

Where can I keep my medicine?

Keep out of the reach of children.

Store upright at room temperature between 15 and 30°C (59 and 86°F) in a well-closed, light-resistant container. Do not freeze the oral solution. Throw away any unused medicine after the expiration date.

Brompheniramine (also known as Bromfed, Dimetapp, Bromfenex, and Dimetane), commonly marketed as its salt brompheniramine maleate is an antihistamine drug of the propylamine (alkylamine) class. It is rarely available over the counter and is indicated for the treatment of the symptoms of the common cold and allergic rhinitis, such as runny nose, itchy eyes, watery eyes, and sneezing. It is a first-generation antihistamine.

Brompheniramine is part of a series of antihistamines including pheniramine (Naphcon) and its halogenated derivatives and others including fluorpheniramine, chlorpheniramine, dexchlorpheniramine (Polaramine), deschlorpheniramine, dipheniramine (also known as triprolidine with the trade name Actifed), and iodopheniramine.

The halogenated alkylamine antihistamines all exhibit optical isomerism and brompheniramine products contain racemic brompheniramine maleate whereas dexbrompheniramine (Drixoral) is the dextrorotary (right-handed) stereoisomer.

Brompheniramine has antidepressant properties, inhibiting reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin. Based on this knowledge, Arvid Carlsson and his colleagues, working at the Swedish company Astra AB, were able to derive the first marketed selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, zimelidine, from brompheniramine.^[1]

Like other agents of this type, brompheniramine also has analgesic-sparing (potentiating) effects on opioid analgesics, commonly reducing codeine, dihydrocodeine, and hydrocodone requirements by 10 to 35 percent.

Pharmacology

Brompheniramine works by acting as an antagonist of histamine H₁ receptors. It also functions as a moderately effective anticholinergic agent, and is likely an antimuscarinic agent similar to other common antihistamines such as diphenhydramine.

Brompheniramine is metabolised by cytochrome P450s.

The halogenated alkylamine antihistamines all exhibit optic isomerism and brompheniramine products contain racaemic brompheniramine maleate whereas dexbrompheniramine (Drixoral) is the dextrorotary (right-handed) stereoisomer.

Side effects

Its effects on the cholinergic system may include side-effects such as drowsiness, sedation, dry mouth, dry throat, blurred vision, and increased heart rate.
