What Are The Anticholinergic Effects Of Antihistamines? - Ear Nose Throat Expert

What Are The Anticholinergic Effects Of Antihistamines? In this informative video, we will discuss the anticholinergic effects of antihistamines and their relevance to conditions affecting the ears, nose, and throat. Antihistamines are widely used to alleviate allergy symptoms, but they can also lead to some unexpected side effects. We will examine how first-generation antihistamines, such as diphenhydramine and chlorpheniramine, work by blocking the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which can result in reduced secretions in the mucous membranes. While this can be beneficial for symptoms like a runny nose, it may also cause discomfort due to dryness in the mouth and respiratory tract.

We will compare first-generation antihistamines with second-generation options, such as loratadine and cetirizine, which are designed to minimize these side effects. Understanding these differences is essential for making informed choices about allergy treatments, especially for vulnerable populations like the elderly. Join us as we break down the implications of using antihistamines and how they can impact your health and comfort.
