Mechanism of action Dimenhydrinate is an

H1 antihistamine, with ethanolamine structure, characterized by a large sedative effect at usual doses, of histaminergic and central adrenolytic origin, an anticholinergic effect causing peripheral side effects, used in the prevention and treatment of transport malignancies, and finally a peripheral adrenolytic effect that can sound haemodynamically (risk of orthostatic hypotension).

Antihistamines have the property in common, by more or less reversible competitive antagonism, to oppose the effects of histamine, particularly on the skin, bronches, intestine, and vessels.
