1-[(4-chlorophenyl)-phenylmethyl]-4-[(3-methylphenyl)methyl]piperazine
Meclizine is an antihistamine of the piperazine class, primarily used as an antiemetic for the treatment of nausea and dizziness. It acts by blocking H1 receptors and possesses anticholinergic properties that contribute to the alleviation of motion sickness symptoms. Due to its sedative effect, it should be used with caution, especially in combination with other central depressants.
