Competes with free histamines for binding at H1 receptors, suppressing flare edema and puritis resultant of histamic reaction in the GI, uterus, blood vessels and bronchial muscles

Diphenhydramine-Hydrochloride(Benadryl)

Acts on alpha and beta receptors in the respiratory tract causing vasoconstriction, reducing tissue hyperemia, edema and relaxing bronchial smooth muscle. Also used to treat urinary incontinence by way of alpha adrenergic reaction.

Pseudophedrine-Hyrdrochloride(Sudafed)

Decreases pulmonary secretion viscosity by breaking down disulfide links that bind glyco-proteins in mucus. Also reduces liver damage in acetaminophen toxicity by linking with metabolites that would otherwise bind with and kill liver cells.

Acetylcysteine(Mucomyst)

Suppresses and treats symptoms of cough by thinning bronchial secretions to ease expectoration. Improves efficacy of mucociliary mechanism by removing secretions in the upper and lower airway.

Guaifenesin(Robitussin)

Attaches to beta2 receptors on bronchial cell membranes, stimulating intra-cellular enzyme adenylate cyclase(AC) to convert into adenosine monophosphate(AMP). This relaxes smooth muscle cells and inhibits histamine release.

Albuterol-Sulfate(Proventil)

Decreases activity and number of cells involved in the inflammatory response of rhinitis, asthma and allergies. May inhibit production of chemical mediators such as cytokines, eicosanoids, histamine and leukotrienes. May produce smooth muscle cell relaxation and decreased airway hyper-response.

Beclomethasone(QVAR)

Blocks acetylcholine released from cholinergic fibers from attaching to muscarine receptors on smooth muscle cell membranes, relaxing smooth muscles and causing bronchodilation.

Ipratropium-Bromide(Atrovent)

Seasonal Allergies, Motion Sickness, Vertigo, Cold Symptoms, Non-Prescript Sleep Aid

Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride(Benadryl)

Used to relieve cold symptoms, allergies and other respiratory symptoms. Also possible use in urinary incontinence.

Pseudophedrine Hydrochloride(Sudafed)

Liquifies abnormally thickened secretions in chronic pulmonary disorders. Used to prevent or reduce the effects of Acetominophen toxicity on the liver

Acetylcysteine(Mucomyst)

Provides temporary cough relief due to minor throat and bronchial irritation

Guaifenesin(Robitussin)

Used to prevent exercise induced bronchospasm

Albuterol Sulfate(Proventil)

Used to maintain treatment of asthma as prophylactic therapy. Used to relieve symptoms of seasonal allergies

Beclomethasone(QVAR)

Used to provide maintenance treatment for bronchospasm associated with COPD including chronic bronchitis and emphysema

Ipratropium Bromide(Atrovent)

Seizures, Anaphylaxis, hemolytic edema, agranulocytosis, drowziness, dermatitis, restlessness, asthenia, dizziness, headache, dry mouth

Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride

Seizure, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, ocular hypertension, bowel ischemia, restlessness, headache, dizziness, insomnia

Pseudophedrine Hydrochloride

Chills, dizziness, headache, edema, hypertension, hypotension, tachycardia, rhinorrha, stridor, hepatotoxicity, bronchospasm, chest tightness, cough, respiratory distress, SOB, errythema, pruritus

Acetylcysteine(Mucomyst)

Seizures, respiratory depression, confusion, hallucinations, drowsiness, restlessness

Guaifenesin(Robitussin)

Anxiety, insomnia, weakness, tremor, angina, arrythmia, chest pain, hypertension, hypotension, altered taste, hyperglycemia, anorexia, dysphagia, diarrea, muscle cramps

Albuterol Sulfate(Proventil)

Aggression, depression, fatigue, fever, insomnia, blurred vision, cataracts, central serous chorioretinopathy, dysphoria, Increased intra-ocular pressure, adrenal insufficiency, diarrea, rectal hemorrhage, growth supression in children, Bronchitis, bronchiospasm, pulmonary infiltrates

Beclomethasone(QVAR)
