Dimenhydrinate

An antihistamine made of diphenhydramine and 8-chlorotheophylline in a 1:1 ratio, used to prevent and relieve nausea, vomiting and dizziness from motion sickness. It has been in pharmacies since 1949, after studies at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities and other impurities.

Did you know?Its effect on motion sickness was discovered by chance in 1947: a patient treated for hives told allergists Leslie Gay and Paul Carliner that her tram rides home were at last free from nausea.
