Phenergan Information:
Phenergan (generic name: Promethazine) is a drug which is prescribed for the treatment of perennial and seasons allergic rhinitis, Vasomotor rhinitis, allergies from food, mild allergic skin manifestations or urticaria and angioedema and other allergic disorders. The active ingredient in Phenergan is Promethazine, which is an antihistamine. It works by blocking the effects of naturally occurring chemicals in the body, called histamines.

Phenergan helps to treat the symptoms of allergies including itching, runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, itchy skin rashes and hives. Phenergan is also used to prevent and treat motion sickness, nausea and vomiting related to certain conditions. Phenergan helps those with allergies to live a more normal lifestyle without the irritation of allergy symptoms.
