Abstract
Doxylamine is a widely available first-generation antihistamine used as a sleep aid. Some first-generation antihistamines, such as doxylamine and diphenhydramine, may block voltage-gated sodium channels. Doxylamine toxicity could include ocular flutter in addition to an antihistaminic/antimuscarinic syndrome, causing encephalopathy and mydriasis.
