About

This podcast is about the correct and intended use of antihistamines. 


We consider brand names like Allergex, SleepEze, DPH, Benylin, Cipla-Actin, Phenergan and others. 


It is common place to find a medicine registered for cough being used by patients to treat insomnia. 


It is also common to find a medicine registered for pruritis (itchiness) being used by patients to promote appetite. 


We focus on the implications of these and especially use in paediatrics.
