Histamine and Antihistamines
ACTA FACULTATIS MEDICAE NAISSENSIS UDC: 615.218 DOI: 10.1515/afmnai-2015-0001 Review article Histamine and Antihistamines Nikola Stojković1, Snežana Cekić2, Milica Ristov3, Marko Ristić1, Davor Đukić1, Maša Binić1, Dragan Virijević1 1University of Niš, Faculty of Medicine, PhD student, Serbia 2Institute of Physiology, University of Niš, Faculty of Medicine , Serbia 3Doctor of Medicine SUMMARY In recent years, there has been a steady increase in the prevalence of allergic diseases. Allergic immune response represents a complex network of cellular events involving numerous immune cells and mediators. It represents the interaction of innate and acquired immune response. The key role in the immune cascade is taken by histamine, a natural component of the body, which in the allergic inflammatory response is releasesd by the mast cells and basophils. The aim of this study was to highlight the role of histamine in allergic immunological events, their effect on Th1 and Th2 subpopulation of lymphocytes and the production of the corresponding cytokines, as well as the role of histamine blockers in the treatment of these conditions. Histamine achieves its effect by binding to the four types of its receptors, which are widely distributed in the body. Histamine blockers block a numerous effects of histamine by binding to these receptors. As a highly selective second-generation antihistamine, cetirizine not only achieves its effects by binding to H1 receptors, but also attenuates numerous events during the inflammatory process.

Certain Cigna Companies and/or lines of business only provide utilization review services to clients and do not make coverage determinations. References to standard benefit plan language and coverage determinations do not apply to those clients. Coverage Policies are intended to provide guidance in interpreting certain standard benefit plans administered by Cigna Companies. Please note, the terms of a customer’s particular benefit plan document [Group Service Agreement, Evidence of Coverage, Certificate of Coverage, Summary Plan Description (SPD) or similar plan document] may differ significantly from the standard benefit plans upon which these Coverage Policies are based. For example, a customer’s benefit plan document may contain a specific exclusion related to a topic addressed in a Coverage Policy. In the event of a conflict, a customer’s benefit plan document always supersedes the information in the Coverage Policies. In the absence of a controlling federal or state coverage mandate, benefits are ultimately determined by the terms of the applicable benefit plan document. Coverage determinations in each specific instance require consideration of 1) the terms of the applicable benefit plan document in effect on the date of service; 2) any applicable laws/regulations; 3) any relevant collateral source materials including Coverage Policies and; 4) the specific facts of the particular situation. -

OTC DOSING GUIDE Benadryl
OTC DOSING GUIDE Benadryl Our Dosing Guide gives dosages for common over-the-counter medications used in children. These medications are dosed according to weight. To calculate your child’s dose, look up his or her weight in the Dosing Guide and read across to the proper dose for each medicine listed. If you do not know your child’s weight and if your child is too young to stand on bathroom scales, a simple way to determine his or her weight is to first weigh both you and your child as you hold him. Then weigh yourself alone. Subtracting these two numbers will give you a fairly accurate weight for your child. The doses listed in the Dosing Chart are standard doses which are safe for your child. In some situations we recommend doses of these medications which may be slightly higher or lower than the doses recommended on the packaging of the medication. This should not concern you. If our advice calls for doses which are dramatically different, please ask us the reason for this. Abbreviations: mg=milligram tsp=teaspoon ml=milliliter cc=cubic centimeter dppr=dropperful 1 cc=1 ml 1 tsp=5 cc If your child takes an overdose of any medication, call Poison Control right away. The phone number is 1-800-376-4766 or 686-6161. CHILDREN’S BENADRYL ALLERGY LIQUID (Generic Name: Diphenhydramine) (Antihistamine) NEVER GIVE TO INFANTS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD. DO NOT GIVE TO CHILDREN LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD UNLESS ADVISED BY A PHYSICIAN. Dosage: Every 4 -6 hours. -
Doxylamine Succinate-Pyridoxine Hydrochloride
Doxylamine succinate-pyridoxine hydrochloride This sheet is about exposure to doxylamine succinate-pyridoxine hydrochloride in pregnancy and while breastfeeding. This information should not take the place of medical care and advice from your healthcare providers. What is doxylamine succinate-pyridoxine hydrochloride? The combination of 10mg of doxylamine succinate and 10mg of pyridoxine hydrochloride is a medication used to treat nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP), also called “morning sickness.” For more information on NVP, please see the MotherToBaby fact sheet Nausea and Vomiting of Pregnancy (https://mothertobaby.org/fact-sheets/nausea-vomiting-pregnancy-nvp/pdf/). Doxylamine succinate is an antihistamine. Antihistamines lessen the symptoms of allergic reactions and colds and help to treat insomnia (hard time sleeping). Pyridoxine hydrochloride is a form of vitamin B6. In the United States, the combination of doxylamine and pyridoxine has been sold under the name Diclegis® since 2013. In Canada, it has been sold under the brand name Diclectin®. Diclegis® and Diclectin® are delayed-release tablets available by prescription. Delayed-release means that the tablet coating prevents the ingredients from being absorbed too quickly by the body. Doxylamine succinate and/or pyridoxine hydrochloride may also be available as over-the- counter medicines. I take doxylamine succinate-pyridoxine hydrochloride. Can it make it harder for me to get pregnant? Based on the data available, it is not known if doxylamine succinate-pyridoxine hydrochloride can make it harder to become pregnant. I just found out I am pregnant. Should I stop taking doxylamine succinate-pyridoxine hydrochloride? Talk with your healthcare providers before making any changes to how you take your medication(s). -
Doxylamine/Pyridoxine
BonjestaTM (doxylamine/pyridoxine) – New Drug Approval • On November 7, 2016, the FDA approved Duchesnay’s Bonjesta (doxylamine/pyridoxine) for the treatment of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy in women who do not respond to conservative management. — Bonjesta has not been studied in women with hyperemesis gravidarum. • Bonjesta is a fixed dose combination product containing an antihistamine (doxylamine) and a vitamin B6 analog (pyridoxine). The exact mechanism of Bonjesta is not known. — Doxylamine/pyridoxine is also available as Diclegis®, which contains 10 mg of doxylamine and 10 mg of pyridoxine as delayed-release tablets for the same indication. • There have been no efficacy and safety trials for Bonjesta. However, a placebo-controlled study was conducted to support the safety and efficacy of 10 mg doxylamine succinate and 10 mg pyridoxine hydrochloride tablets (a different formulation and dosage strength than Bonjesta) in the treatment of nausea and vomiting of pregnancy. • Bonjesta is contraindicated in women with known hypersensitivity to doxylamine, other ethanolamine derivative antihistamines, or pyridoxine or any inactive ingredient in the formulation; monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors intensify and prolong the adverse central nervous system effects of Bonjesta. • Warnings and precautions of Bonjesta include somnolence and concomitant medical conditions. • The most common adverse event (≥ 5% and exceeding placebo) with combination 10 mg doxylamine and 10 mg pyridoxine tablets was somnolence. • The recommended dose of Bonjesta is one tablet orally at bedtime on day 1. If the dose adequately controls symptoms the next day, the patient may continue taking one tablet daily at bedtime only. However, if symptoms persist on day 2, the dose may be increased to one tablet in the morning and one tablet at bedtime.
