Diphenhydramine (DPH) is a first generation antihistamine that is a potent antagonist of the histamine H1 receptor (Ki = 11.7 nM using human recombinant receptors). DPH readily crosses the blood-brain barrier and produces diverse cognitive and psychomotor effects. DPH also antagonizes muscarinic cholinergic receptors (Kis = 100 to 260 nM for M1-M5), increasing the range of central nervous system effects and applications. This product is also available as an analytical reference standard (Item No. 22489).
