Dimethindene occurs as a racemic mixture. The (S)-(+)-dimethindene is a potent M2-selective muscarinic receptor antagonist (with lower affinity for M1, M3, and M4 muscarinic receptors). The (R)-(-)-enantiomer is the eutomer (responsible for bioactivity) for histamine H1 receptor binding.

Agents, usually topical, that relieve itching (pruritus).

Drugs that selectively bind to but do not activate histamine H1 receptors, thereby blocking the actions of endogenous histamine. Included here are the classical antihistaminics that antagonize or prevent the action of histamine mainly in immediate hypersensitivity. They act in the bronchi, capillaries, and some other smooth muscles, and are used to prevent or allay motion sickness, seasonal rhinitis, and allergic dermatitis and to induce somnolence. The effects of blocking central nervous system H1 receptors are not as well understood.

Agents that are used to treat allergic reactions. Most of these drugs act by preventing the release of inflammatory mediators or inhibiting the actions of released mediators on their target cells. (From AMA Drug Evaluations Annual, 1994, p475)
