Pharmacology
Indication: Used for the symptomatic relief of hypersensitivity reactions and particularly for the control of pruritic skin disorders
Pharmacology:
In allergic reactions an allergen interacts with and cross-links surface IgE antibodies on mast cells and basophils. Once the mast cell-antibody-antigen complex is formed, a complex series of events occurs that eventually leads to cell-degranulation and the release of histamine (and other chemical mediators) from the mast cell or basophil. Once rel...

Mechanism of Action: Methdilazine binds to the histamine H1 receptor. This blocks the action of endogenous histamine, which subsequently leads to temporary relief of the negative symptoms brought on by histamine.
Absorption: Well absorbed in the digestive tract.
Toxicity: Symptoms of overdose include clumsiness or unsteadiness, convulsions, drowsiness, dryness of mouth, nose, or throat, feeling faint, flushing or redness of face, hallucinations, muscle spasms (especially of neck and back), restlessness, shortness of breath or troubled breathing, shuffling walk, tic-like movements of head and face, trembling and shaking of hands, and trouble in sleeping.
Affected organisms: Humans and other mammals
