Antihistamines that are commonly used to reduce nausea include dimenhydrinate (Dramamine) and meclizine (Bonine). These medications work by blocking histamine receptors in the brain, which can help alleviate motion sickness and other forms of nausea. Additionally, promethazine (Phenergan), though primarily an antipsychotic, also possesses antihistaminic properties and is effective for treating nausea and vomiting. Always consult a healthcare professional for appropriate use and dosage.
NO
The second-generation antihistamines bind only to peripheral H1 receptors, and reduce allergic response with little or no sedation.
Antihistamines in Midol help to reduce inflammation and swelling, which can alleviate symptoms like bloating and cramps during menstruation.
Yes. First generation antihistamines (i.e. Vistaril, Benadryl) increase the analgesic effects of most opiates so that a lower dose of opiate can be given. Antihistamines also reduce some of the side effects, such as itching and nausea. Vistaril can also inhibit the enzyme that metabolizes Oxycodone, but I think that is negligible unless the Vistaril dose is very high (over 100mg).
Assuming the swelling is due to an allergic reaction, antihistamines will help reduce the pain, swelling and itching associated with the release of histamine in the body following exposure to these agents. They will not help swelling from trauma.
No, Flovent does not contain antihistamines. Flovent is a corticosteroid medication primarily used to reduce inflammation in the airways, helping to manage asthma and other respiratory conditions. Antihistamines, on the other hand, are used to treat allergy symptoms and work by blocking the effects of histamine in the body.
Antihistamines may be prescribed to reduce tightness in the chest.
Antihistamines and drugs that reduce stomach acid are frequently needed.
bind non-selectively to H1 receptors in the central nervous system as well as to peripheral receptors, and can produce sedation, inhibition of nausea and vomiting, and reduction of motion sickness.
Ginger and mint both help reduce nausea and can be taken as a tea. Just steep some bruised mint leaves or grated fresh ginger in boiling water for about 5 minutes.
The second-generation antihistamines bind only to peripheral H1 receptors, and reduce allergic response with little or no sedation.
