Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine which is used in the combination with naproxen sodium for the relief of occasional sleeplessness when associated with minor aches and pains. Diphenhydramine has a role nighttime sleep-aid and naproxen sodium is a pain reliever. In addition, diphenhydramine used in relieving symptoms in patients with moderate-to-severe seasonal allergic rhinitis. Diphenhydramine acts as an antagonist of histamine H1 receptor. Besides, was shown potential to repurpose diphenhydramine as an anti-melanoma therapeutic agent, it induces melanoma cell apoptosis by suppressing STAT3/MCL-1 survival signaling pathway.
