Bromax Tablets - Clinical Pharmacology

Brompheniramine maleate is classified as an alkylamine antihistamine. This class is among the most active histamine antagonists and is generally effective in relatively low doses. Alkylamines cause a lesser degree of drowsiness and sedation than the phenothiazine and ethanolamine antihistamines and hence may be more suitable for daytime use. It should be noted however that patients taking alkylamine antihistamines may experience some degree of drowsiness and should be cautioned accordingly.
