Effects of antihistamines on wound healing
Abstract
Role of antihistamines (H1 and H2 blockers) in wound healing by utilizing incision and dead space wound models in albino rats was investigated. H1 blockers (mepyramine and promethazine) were found to decrease breaking strength of 10 day old dermal incision wounds and collagen content (as hydroxyproline) and breaking strength of granulation tissue harvested over tubular implant. On the other hand H2 blockers (Cimetidine and ranitidine) did not alter the above parameters. The findings that H1 blockers suppress healing implicate H1 receptors in alleged prohealing effect of histamine, and suggest clinical evaluation of these agents for suppression of overhealing states like keloid, adhesions and strictures.
