SMILES: CN1C(=C2C(=NC(=N2)Cl)N(C1=O)C)[O-].C[NH+](C)CCOC(C1=CC=CC=C1)C2=CC=CC=C2
Description: The molecule is the diphenhydramine salt of 8-chlorotheophylline. Its effects are similar to those of diphenhydramine, but it is less potent. It was thought that by combining the antiemetic effects of diphenhydramine with the mild stimulant effects of 8-chlorotheophyline, the extreme drowsiness induced by the former would be mitigated. However, the sedation caused by diphenhydramine is considerably stronger than the stimulation caused by 8-chlorotheophylline. Dimenhydrinate is used mainly as an antiemetic in the prevention and treatment of motion sickness. It has a role as a H1-receptor antagonist and an antiemetic. It contains a diphenhydramine and an 8-chlorotheophylline(1-).
