Doxylamine
A first-generation ethanolamine antihistamine, described in the late 1940s: it is used against occasional insomnia and, together with vitamin B6, against nausea in pregnancy. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards, nitrosamines and other impurities.
Did you know?It was discovered by chemist Nathan Sperber and colleagues. It easily crosses the barrier that protects the brain: this is why, like the other first-generation antihistamines, it has a sedative effect that makes it useful as a sleep aid.
