TY - JOUR T1 - ANTIHISTAMINICS AS EPINEPHRINE SENSITIZERS JF - Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics JO - J Pharmacol Exp Ther SP - 228 LP - 237 VL - 113 IS - 2 AU - KANAME KURIAKI AU - TOHORU UCHIDA Y1 - 1955/02/01 UR - http://jpet.aspetjournals.org/content/113/2/228.abstract N2 - The antihistaminics, Benadryl and Diatrin, sensitize peripheral organs to epinephrine as well as to sympathetic stimulation. In addition, these agents inhibit amine oxidase activity. The antihistaminic, Anergen, does not inhibit amine oxidase and its effects on effector sites responding to epinephrine and sympathetic stimulation are variable. © 1955, by The Williams & Wilkins Company ER -
