Bromodiphenhydramine
A bromo-substituted analogue of diphenhydramine with antihistamine and sedative properties, historically used as a cough suppressant and for allergy symptoms. It works by blocking histamine H1 receptors and has anticholinergic effects. It is rarely used today and has been replaced by more selective antihistamines.
