Overview
Mepyramine, or pyrilamine, targets the H1 receptor. It is a first generation antihistamine. However, it rapidly permeates the brain and so often causes drowsiness as a side effect. It has been found in over-the-counter combination products for colds and menstrual symptoms, but is considered to be an unapproved prescription medication used for cough, cold, or allergic conditions.
Indication
Indicated for the treatment of allergic conditions, symptomatic relief of hypersensitivity reaction, and treatment of pruritic skin disorders.
