                                 dimetindene is an approved drug Compound class: 
                                                            Synthetic organic
                                 
                                    
                                        Comment: Dimetindene is an orally active, selective histamine H1 receptor antagonist. It also has anticholinergic activity [1]. The INN specifies the racemic mixture of (R)- and (S)-enantiomers. We show the structure without specified stereochemistry to represent that mixture.
