Identification
Name Diphenylpyraline
Accession Number DB01146 (APRD00719)
Type small molecule
Description Diphenylpyraline is an antihistamine. Antihistamines used in the treatment of allergy act by competing with histamine for H 1-receptor sites on effector cells. Antihistamines prevent, but do not reverse, responses mediated by histamine alone. Antihistamines antagonize, in varying degrees, most of the pharmacological effects of histamine, including urticaria and pruritus.

Pharmacology
Indication For use in the treatment of allergic rhinitis, hay fever, and allergic skin disorders.
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.
