pyrilamine and Drug Withdrawal Symptoms

pyrilamine has been researched along with Drug Withdrawal Symptoms in 3 studies

Pyrilamine: A histamine H1 antagonist. It has mild hypnotic properties and some local anesthetic action and is used for allergies (including skin eruptions) both parenterally and locally. It is a common ingredient of cold remedies.
mepyramine : An ethylenediamine derivative that is ethylenediamine in which one of the amino nitrogens is substituted by two methyl groups and the remaining amino nitrogen is substituted by a 4-methoxybenzyl and a pyridin-2-yl group.

Trial Outcomes

OOWS Score

"The OOWS is a 13-item instrument documenting physically observable signs of withdrawal, which are rated as present (1) or absent (0) during the observation period. Maximum score possible = 13, minimum score possible = 0. T=15 minutes post naloxone administration coordinates with T = 180 (min) for the entire study session.~OOWS scores at T=180 is the primary outcome measure of the study compared with baseline OOWS scores at T=-30 (30 minutes prior to study medication administration). Reported time frames are in relation to time past since administration of study medications.~Mean post-Naloxone OOWS scores (+/- SEM) were determined for pretreatment groups" (NCT00661674)
Timeframe: Change from baseline in OOWS score at 180 minutes (15 minutes post naloxone administration)

Interventionunits on a scale (OOWS Scale) (Mean)
Placebo3.5
Palonosetron1.0
Palonosetron + Hydroxyzine0

SOWS Score

"The SOWS score is composed of 16 subjective symptoms rated on a scale of 0 to 4 (0=not at all, 4=extremely) based on what subjects were experiencing at the time of testing. 15 minutes post naloxone administration coordinates with T = 180 (min) for the entire study session.~The highest score possible (64) would indicate that the individual was experiencing every symptom of opioid withdrawal to the fullest extent possible while the lowest score (0) would indicate that the individual was not experiencing any symptoms of opioid withdrawal.~Mean post-naloxone SOWS scores (+/- SEM) were computed for pretreatment groups: Placebo, palonosetron, and palonosetron with hydroxyzine" (NCT00661674)
Timeframe: Change from baseline in SOWS score at 180 minutes (15 minutes post naloxone administration)
