藥理
First generation Histamine H1 Antagonist
Meclizine has CNS depressant, anticholinergic, antiemetic, antispasmodic, and local anesthetic effects in addition to antihistaminic activity. The drug depresses labyrinth excitability and conduction in vestibular-cerebellar pathways. The antiemetic and antimotion-sickness actions of meclizine result, at least in part, from its central anticholinergic and CNS depressant properties.
