Phenindamine tartrate (Cat No.: I008745) is a first-generation antihistamine that acts as an H₁ receptor antagonist, used to relieve allergy symptoms such as hay fever, urticaria, and rhinitis. It has additional anticholinergic and mild sedative properties, making it effective in treating motion sickness and mild insomnia. Unlike some older antihistamines, Phenindamine exhibits less drowsiness while still providing effective allergy relief. It has been studied for its potential in cold medications and antihistamine therapy, offering symptomatic relief in various allergic and respiratory conditions.
