diphenhydramine and Osteoporosis

diphenhydramine has been researched along with Osteoporosis in 1 studies

Diphenhydramine: A histamine H1 antagonist used as an antiemetic, antitussive, for dermatoses and pruritus, for hypersensitivity reactions, as a hypnotic, an antiparkinson, and as an ingredient in common cold preparations. It has some undesired antimuscarinic and sedative effects.
diphenhydramine : An ether that is the benzhydryl ether of 2-(dimethylamino)ethanol. It is a H1-receptor antagonist used as a antipruritic and antitussive drug.
antitussive : An agent that suppresses cough. Antitussives have a central or a peripheral action on the cough reflex, or a combination of both. Compare with expectorants, which are considered to increase the volume of secretions in the respiratory tract, so facilitating their removal by ciliary action and coughing, and mucolytics, which decrease the viscosity of mucus, facilitating its removal by ciliary action and expectoration.

Osteoporosis: Reduction of bone mass without alteration in the composition of bone, leading to fractures. Primary osteoporosis can be of two major types: postmenopausal osteoporosis (OSTEOPOROSIS, POSTMENOPAUSAL) and age-related or senile osteoporosis.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Here, we compared the analgesic effect of an ointment containing 1% diphenhydramine (a typical first-generation antihistaminic drug) with that of indomethacin (a typical non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) in elderly patients with osteoarthritis and/or osteoporosis who complained of bone-joint-muscle pain."5.17Prompt analgesic effect of antihistaminic diphenhydramine ointment on bone-joint-muscle pain as assessed by skin impedance.
