The maleate salt form of chlorpheniramine is the most commonly used preparation of this first-generation antihistamine, found in numerous oral cold and allergy medications. It relieves sneezing, runny nose, and itching but causes sedation in many patients. Caution is needed in elderly patients due to anticholinergic side effects including urinary retention and confusion.
