1 The effects of triprolidine and cyclizine on the histamine skin response, performance tests and subjective effects were examined in a controlled, double-blind study in eight healthy volunteers. 2 Triprolidine was considerably more potent that cyclizine in inhibiting the skin response to histamine. Significant inhibition of flare size occurred at 1, 2 an 4 h after triprolidine 2.5 mg. A smaller but significant reduction occurred at 2 and 4 h after cyclizine 100 mg but not after the 50 mg dose. 3 Cyclizine 100 mg produced a significant increase in reaction time at 4.5 h compared with lactose. Smaller though non significant increases followed triprolidine and cyclizine 50 mg. 4 Subjective effects were seen only after cyclizine 100 mg when subjects were significantly more drowsy, feeble, muzzy, lethargic and dreamy than after lactose dummy. No significant changes followed triprolidine 2.5 mg or cyclizine 50 mg. 5 It was concluded that while cyclizine has antihistamine properties, these are weak compared with triprolidine, and are not seen with doses sufficiently low to avoid central nervous system impairment.
