diphenhydramine and phenylephrine

Generic Name: diphenhydramine and phenylephrine (dye fen HI drah meen and feh nill EH frin)
Brand Names: Dytan-D

What is diphenhydramine and phenylephrine?

Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine. It blocks the effects of histamine in the body and reduces sneezing; itchy, watery eyes and nose; and other symptoms of allergies and hay fever.

Phenylephrine is a decongestant. It works by constricting (shrinking) blood vessels (veins and arteries) in the body. Constriction of blood vessels in the sinuses and nose decreases congestion.

Diphenhydramine and phenylephrine is used to treat nasal congestion and sinusitis (inflammation of the sinuses) associated with allergies, hay fever, and the common cold.

Diphenhydramine and phenylephrine may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

If you experience dizziness or drowsiness, avoid these activities. Use alcohol cautiously. Alcohol may increase drowsiness and dizziness while you are taking diphenhydramine and phenylephrine.
