Overdose is expected to result in effects similar to the adverse effects that are ordinarily associated with the use of diphenhydramine, including drowsiness, hyperpyrexia, and anticholinergic effects, among others L5266, L5269, L5281, L5287, F3394. Additional symptoms during overdose may include mydriasis, fever, flushing, agitation, tremor, dystonic reactions, hallucinations and ECG changes L5287. Large overdose may cause rhabdomyolysis, convulsions, delirium, toxic psychosis, arrhythmias, coma and cardiovascular collapse L5287. Moreover, with higher doses, and particularly in children, symptoms of CNS excitation including hallucinations and convulsions may appear; with massive doses, coma or cardiovascular collapse may follow F3394.
Although diphenhydramine has been in widespread use for many years without ill consequence, it is known to cross the placenta and has been detected in breast milk F3394. This medication should therefore only be used when the potential benefit of treatment to the mother exceeds any possible hazards to the developing fetus or suckling infant F3394.
Pharmacokinetic studies indicate no major differences in the distribution or elimination of diphenhydramine compared to younger adults F3394. Nevertheless, diphenhydramine should be used with caution in the elderly, who are more likely to experience adverse effects L5287. Avoid use in elderly patients with confusion L5287.
The results of a review on the use of diphenhydramine in renal failure suggest that in moderate to severe renal failure, the dose interval should be extended by a period dependent on Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) F3394.
After intravenous administration of 0.8 mg/kg diphenhydramine, a prolonged half-life was noted in patients with chronic liver disease which correlated with the severity of the disease F3394. However, the mean plasma clearance and apparent volume of distribution were not significantly affected F3394.
LD50=500 mg/kg (orally in rats). Considerable overdosage can lead to myocardial infarction (heart attack), serious ventricular dysrhythmias, coma and death.
Diphenhydramine - perhaps known most commonly as its brand name formulation Benadryl - is a first-generation H1 receptor antihistamine that is used extensively for the treatment of seasonal allergies, insect bites and stings, and rashes L5263, L5266, L5269, F3379. However, it also has antiemetic, antitussive, hypnotic, and antiparkinson properties L5269, F3352. As histamine receptors exist both peripherally and in the central nervous system, diphenhydramine has been shown to cause sedation due to its competitive antagonism of histamine H1 receptors within the central nervous system L5263, L5266, L5269, F3379, A174541. While its use in allergy therapy can sometimes fall out of favor due to its sedative effect, diphenhydramine has been repurposed for use within many non-prescription over-the-counter sleep aids and cough-and-cold medications that have been marketed for "night time" use L5263, L5281, L5287.
Diphenhydramine is also used in combination with DB14132 as the anti-nausea drug DB00985 where it is utilized primarily for its antagonism of H1 histamine receptors within the vestibular system A1540.
Diphenhydramine has also been shown to be implicated in a number of neurotransmitter systems that affect behaviour including dopamine, norepinephrine, serotonin, acetylcholine, and opioid A1539. As a result, diphenhydramine is being investigated for its anxiolytic and anti-depressant properties.
