Diphenhydramine (DPH) is an antihistamine medication. It is mainly used to treat allergies.[8] It can also be used to treat insomnia, the common cold, tremor in parkinsonism, and nausea.[8] It is taken by mouth, injected into a vein, injected into a muscle, or put on the skin.[8] It works best two hours after taking, and works for up to seven hours.[8]

Common side effects include sleepiness, bad balance and a bad stomach.[8] It should not be used in young children or the elderly.[8][9] It can be used while pregnant, but not when breastfeeding.[10] It works by blocking some effects of histamine from working at the H1 receptor.[8] Diphenhydramine is also an anticholinergic, and is a deliriant at high doses.[11]

Diphenhydramine was first made by George Rieveschl and was first used in 1946.[12][13] It is available as a generic medication.[8] It is also sold under the brand name Benadryl, as well as others.[8] It was the 241st most commoly prescribed medication in the United States in 2017.[14][15]
