Hydroxyzine crosses the blood–brain barrier easily and exerts effects in the central nervous system. [39] A positron emission tomography (PET) study found that brain occupancy of the H 1 receptor was 67.6% for a single 30 mg dose of hydroxyzine. [45] In addition, subjective sleepiness correlated well with the brain H 1 receptor occupancy. [45]
H 1 antagonists, also called H 1 blockers, are a class of medications that block the action of histamine at the H 1 receptor, helping to relieve allergic reactions. Agents where the main therapeutic effect is mediated by negative modulation of histamine receptors are termed antihistamines ; other agents may have antihistaminergic action but are ...

An H 3 receptor antagonist is a type of antihistaminic drug used to block the action of histamine at H 3 receptors.. Unlike the H 1 and H 2 receptors which have primarily peripheral actions, but cause sedation if they are blocked in the brain, H 3 receptors are primarily found in the brain and are inhibitory autoreceptors located on histaminergic nerve terminals, which modulate the release of ...

A 10 mg dose of cetirizine equals about a 30 mg dose of hydroxyzine in terms of peripheral antihistamine effect.) [30] PET studies with antihistamines have found that brain H 1 receptor occupancy of more than 50% is associated with a high prevalence of somnolence and cognitive decline, whereas brain H 1 receptor occupancy of less than 20% is ...
