Drugs opposing the actions of the chemical histamine and commonly used to treat allergies. In the past, these drugs were used to treat some of the symptoms of Parkinson's.
drugs that are used to prevent or relieve the symptoms of hay fever and other allergies by preventing the action of a substance called histamine, which is produced by the body. Histamine can cause itching, sneezing, runny nose, watery eyes, and sometimes can make breathing difficult. Some of these drugs are also used to prevent motion sickness, nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. Since they may cause drowsiness as a side effect, some of them may be used to help people go to sleep.
Antihistamines are tranquilizers that are used in the treatment of nausea, vomitting and allergies. They include a wide variety of drugs that block the histamine receptors.
a group of medications used to treat allergic symptoms by blocking the action of histamine. Histamine is responsible for the sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, and other signs and symptoms of allergies.
Drugs that block the effects of histamine on blood vessels, sensory nerves, and glands that secrete mucus. Antihistamines used for allergy are in the H1 class of antihistamines, as distinct from H2 antihistamines, which block stomach acid secretion.
Drugs opposing the actions of histamine; commonly used to treat allergies. Used in the past for Parkinson's as they sometimes had beneficial effects on symptoms due to their anticholinergic properties.
Drugs that counter the effects of histamine, a normal chemical in the blood that is believed to cause allergic reactions.
agents that arrest production of histamine and which are useful in allergic conditions.
Medicines that are used to treat allergic reactions. They work by blocking the effect of histamine. Available as liquids, tablets and nasal sprays.
A medication used to prevent or treat seizures. Certain anticonvulsants may cause an allergic reaction in some people.
Drugs that are often used to relieve cold or allergy symptoms (for example Benadryl) but may also be effective in reducing tremor.
These are drugs that block the action of histamine at its receptor sites. Also referred to as histamine antagonists. The older (classical) antihistamines cross the blood-brain barrier and cause sedation. newer non-sedating antihistamines do not have this adverse side effect
drugs which combat the effects of histamine. (Histamine is a chemical released by certain cells of the body.) Used to reduce nausea and sickness. Drowinsess is a detrimental side-effect when used for these purposes, but this drowsiness is desired when the drugs are used to treat insomnia.
Drugs, which suppress the effects of histamine, e.g. via blockade of histamine receptors
This is a drug used to treat allergies that works to reduce the effects of histamine in your body.
A class of medications used to block the action of histamines in the body and prevent the symptoms of an allergic reaction.
The major effect of antihistamines is to inhibit the actions of histamine released in the body during an allergic reaction. In addition, antihistamines have anticholinergic properties that may be beneficial in the treatment of tremor in PD
Medications used to treat allergic reactions or allergies.
Medications that block the effects of histamine, which is one of the substances your body releases when it reacts to allergens. Antihistamines may help relieve sneezing and itchy, runny nose and eye symptoms.
Drugs that combat the histamine released during an allergic reaction by blocking the action of the histamine on the tissue. Antihistamines do not stop the formation of histamine nor do they stop the conflict between the IgE and antigen. Therefore, antihistamines do not stop the allergic reaction but protect tissues from some of its effects. Antihistamines frequently cause mouth dryness and sleepiness. Newer "non sedating" antihistamines are generally thought to be somewhat less effective. Antihistamine side effects that very occasionally occur include urine retention in males and fast heart rate.
Drugs that block the action of histamine, thereby dampening the ferocity of an immediate allergic reaction (see Allergies).
drugs which block the action of histamine, thus preventing or alleviating the major symptoms of an allergic response.
A group of medications that block the effects of histamine, a chemical released in body fluids during an allergic reaction. Antihistamines reduce itching, sneezing and runny nose.
These drugs block the effects of the allergy chemical, histamine, and relieves sneezing, watery eyes, runny nose and itching of the nose and throat.
drugs that are often used to relieve cold or allergy symptoms but may also be effective in reducing tremor; many availableas Over-The-Counter pharmaceuticals.
