Description
(extracted from source data)
PRICE 29
DESCRIPTION Mepyramine maleate, a first generation antihistamine, is an antagonist of histamine H1 receptor, with Kds of 0.8 nM, 5200 nM and >3000 nM for H1, H2, and H3 receptor, respectively, and a pKd of 9.4 for H1 receptor.
DESCRIPTION Pyrilamine is a first generation antihistamine, but it crosses the blood-brain barrier easily and causes substantial drowsiness.
INDICATION Indicated for the treatment of allergic conditions, symptomatic relief of hypersensitivity reaction, and treatment of pruritic skin disorders.
PRICE 211
DESCRIPTION Mepyramine is a histamine H1 antagonist. It has mild hypnotic properties and some local anesthetic action and is used for allergies both parenterally and locally.
DESCRIPTION Highly selective standard H2 agonist (Tocris Bioactive Compound Library)
DESCRIPTION H1 Histamine receptor antagonist (LOPAC library)
DESCRIPTION Selective H1 inverse agonist (Tocriscreen Total)
DESCRIPTION Mepyramine maleate (Pyrilamine maleate) is a histamine H1 antagonist. It has mild hypnotic properties and some local anesthetic action and is used for allergies (including skin eruptions) both parenterally and locally. It is a common ingredient of cold remedies. (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
DESCRIPTION Pyrilamine maleate salt is a first generation antihistamine and binds with high affinity to G(q/11) protein. It is commonly utilized as a radioligand binding assay for the H1 receptor. It also has anticholinergic properties. It is used in over-the-counter combination products to treat the common cold and menstrual symptoms. It is also the active ingredient of the topical antihistamine creams Anthisan and Neoantergan. It is also found to be a potent inhibitor of CYP2D6 in hepatocytes. It has been listed.
