Indication: For use in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, hay fever, and allergic skin disorders
Pharmacology: Diphenylpyraline is an antihistamine that prevents, but does not reverse, responses mediated by histamine alone. Diphenylpyraline antagonizes most of the pharmacological effects of histamine, including urticaria and pruritus. Also, diphenylpyraline may exhibit anticholinergic actions (as do most of the antihistamines) and may thus provide a drying effect on the nasal mucosa.
Mechanism Of Action: Antihistamines such as diphenylpyraline used in the treatment of allergy act by competing with histamine for H1-receptor sites on effector cells. This reduces the effects of histamine, leading to a temporary reduction of allergy symptoms.
Absorption: Well absorbed after oral administration.
Interactions:

Interactions for Diphenylpyraline:
This drug may interact with alcohol or other CNS depressants (may
potentiate the CNS depressant effects of either these medications or antihistamines), anticholinergics or other
medications with anticholinergic activity (anticholinergic effects may be potentiated when these medications are used
concurrently with antihistamines), and monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors (concurrent use with antihistamines may
prolong and intensify the anticholinergic and CNS depressant effects of antihistamines).
