[Antihistamines in pediatrics].
Histamine antagonists have various effects on H1, H2, cholinergic, adrenergic and serotoninergic receptors. In childhood side effects may be different and central agitation may be more pronounced than in adults. Histamine antagonists should be avoided in the fetal and neonatal periods. They are not indicated in common cold. The use of histamine antagonists in childhood will be discussed.
