Chlorpheniramine
A first-generation antihistamine of the alkylamine class that blocks H1 receptors to relieve allergic rhinitis, hay fever, urticaria, and cold symptoms. It crosses the blood-brain barrier and commonly causes sedation. It is widely available in over-the-counter preparations, often in combination with decongestants and analgesics.
