Common with first-generation antihistamines compared with second-generation antihistamines.Second generation (non-sedating) antihistamines were developed in the 1980s and are much less sedating than first-generation antihistamines. They act on histamine-1 receptors in the periphery and are unlikely to penetrate the brain, so are less likely to cause side effects or interact with drugs. Most second-generation antihistamines do not cause drowsiness, although some (such as cetirizine and fexofenadine), may be more likely to do so at higher dosages.Common antihistamines available in the U.S.First Generation (Sedating) AntihistaminesSecond Generation (Non-sedating) AntihistaminesWhat are the side effects of antihistamines?Side effects of first-generation (sedating) antihistamines may include:blurred or double visionconstipationdry eyesa dry mouthdrowsiness or sedationa headachelow blood pressuremucus thickening in the airwaysa rapid heartbeatstomach painurinary problemsSide effects of second-generation (non-sedating) antihistamines may include:coughingdrowsiness (this is uncommon)fatigue a headachenauseaa sore throatstomach pain.List of AntihistaminesView by Generic | Brand Filter by Drug Name Avg.
