Doxylamine is a first generation antihistamine. It can be used by itself as a short-term sedative and in combination with other drugs to provide night-time allergy and cold relief. Doxylamine is also used in combination with the analgesics paracetamol (acetaminophen) and codeine as an analgesic/calmative preparation and is prescribed in combination with vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) to prevent morning sickness in pregnant women.
