FDA Information

Diphenhydramine was originally approved by the FDA in 1946.

Diphenhydramine is a first generation antihistamine drug. Despite being one of the oldest antihistamines on the market, it is by and large the most effective antihistamine available, either by prescription or over-the-counter, and has been shown to exceed the effectiveness of even the latest prescription drugs. 

Please visit the official site of the FDA for further information.
