NCIt definition : The hydrochloride salt form of diphenhydramine, an ethanolamine and first-generation
histamine antagonist with anti-allergic activity. Diphenhydramine hydrochloride competitively
blocks H1receptors, thereby preventing the actions of histamine on bronchial smooth
muscle, capillaries, and gastrointestinal (GI) smooth muscle. This prevents histamine-induced
bronchoconstriction, vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, and GI smooth
muscle spasms.;
