Chlorpheniramine: A histamine H1 antagonist used in allergic reactions, hay fever, rhinitis, urticaria, and asthma. It has also been used in veterinary applications. One of the most widely used of the classical antihistaminics, it generally causes less drowsiness and sedation than PROMETHAZINE.
chlorphenamine : A tertiary amino compound that is propylamine which is substituted at position 3 by a pyridin-2-yl group and a p-chlorophenyl group and in which the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen are replaced by methyl groups. A histamine H1 antagonist, it is used to relieve the symptoms of hay fever, rhinitis, urticaria, and asthma.
Torticollis: A symptom, not a disease, of a twisted neck. In most instances, the head is tipped toward one side and the chin rotated toward the other. The involuntary muscle contractions in the neck region of patients with torticollis can be due to congenital defects, trauma, inflammation, tumors, and neurological or other factors.

| " We have investigated the effects of intravenous administration of atropine, benztropine and chlorpheniramine, in comparison to normal saline, in 20 patients with adult-onset focal dystonias (spasmodic torticollis (9), cranial dystonia (6), writer's cramp (5), and have retrospectively reviewed the notes of 78 patients (spasmodic torticollis (38), cranial dystonia (25), writer's cramp (15), who had received chronic oral anticholinergic therapy in varying doses at some time in the past." | 3.66 | Anticholinergics in adult-onset focal dystonia.
