Why Do Allergy Meds Cause Drowsiness?

Описание: Ever wondered why your allergy medication leaves you feeling so sleepy? This video dives into the science behind that common side effect, helping you understand what's happening in your body when you take those pills. Discover why some allergy reliefs make you drowsy and others don't.

In this video, we explore the mechanisms behind allergy medication-induced drowsiness:
► First-generation antihistamines can cross the blood-brain barrier, affecting histamine receptors in the brain and causing sedation.
► Newer, second-generation antihistamines are designed to be less sedating as they are less likely to enter the brain.
► Drowsiness is a common side effect of many allergy medications due to their impact on the central nervous system.
► Understanding the difference between sedating and non-sedating antihistamines is key to managing allergy symptoms effectively without excessive fatigue.
