Abstract
Thephorin, 2-methyl-9-phenyl-2,3,4,9-tetrahydro-1-pyridindene, one of three closely related pyridindene derivatives studied, proved to be a potent antihistaminic on isolated guinea pig's ileum, in the spray test, against intracardial histamine and against anaphylactic shock. In addition, Thephorin antagonizes spasmogenic effects of acetyl-choline, of Ba-ions and of epinephrine.
