Abstract
It is perceived that the newer antihistamines, which have been developed so as to be less sedating relative to the "first generation" antihistamines, possess diminished anticholinergic effects on rhinorrhea, compared to first-generation antihistamines. It is also perceived that no oral medicinal formulation is presently available for treatment of allergic rhinitis that provides both antihistaminic and anticholinergic actions and is unlikely to produce sedation. This invention provides such a formulation.
