Bromodiphenhydramine (Bromazine; trade names: Ambodryl, Ambrodil and others) hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of bromodiphenhydramine, a synthetic ethanolamine with histamine H1 antagonistic and sedative properties. The symptoms of histamine activity on capillaries, bronchial smooth muscle, and gastrointestinal smooth muscle—vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, bronchoconstriction, and spasmodic contraction of gastrointestinal smooth muscle—are prevented by bromodiphenhydramine hydrochloride, which blocks the H1 histamine receptor. Additionally, this medication keeps mucous membranes from itching and hurting due to histamine.
| Targets |
This study investigates the antibacterial activity of Bromodiphenhydramine HCl. Its primary known pharmacology is as an antihistamine. [2]
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Bromodiphenhydramine hydrochloride (1.5 and 3 μg/g, single) protects mice from a virulent strain of Salmonella typhimurium challenge and also significantly lowers the organism's growth in the protected animals' liver, spleen, and blood when compared to the unprotected controls[2].
Among nine antihistamines screened, Bromodiphenhydramine HCl (Ambodryl) exhibited the broadest and most potent in vitro antibacterial activity. At concentrations of 50-100 µg/mL, it inhibited a large number of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. Its spectrum was broader than its analog Diphenhydramine HCl (Benadryl). [2] Specifically, at 50 µg/mL, Ambodryl inhibited 88 out of 111 Salmonella strains, 47 out of 73 Shigella strains, 54 out of 60 Staphylococcus aureus strains, and all 6 Vibrio cholerae strains tested. It was not active against Pseudomonas aeruginosa or Bordetella bronchiseptica. [2] The antibacterial effect was bactericidal, as bacteria exposed to the drug for 48 hours failed to grow upon transfer to fresh medium. [2] |
| ln Vivo |
Bromdiphenhydramine hydrochloride (1.5 and 3 μg/g, single dose) protects mice against challenge with a virulent strain of Salmonella typhimurium and also significantly reduces the risk of death in protected animals compared with unprotected animals. Control of the reproduction of this microorganism in the liver, spleen and blood [2].
In a mouse model of infection, a single intraperitoneal dose of Ambodryl (3 µg/g body weight, administered 3 hours before challenge) significantly protected Swiss white mice against a lethal challenge with 50 LD₅₀ of Salmonella typhimurium 11. Mortality was reduced compared to untreated controls (P < 0.01). [2] Treatment with Ambodryl (3 µg/g) also significantly reduced the bacterial load (CFU/mL) in the liver and spleen homogenates of infected mice at 2 and 18 hours post-challenge compared to saline-treated controls (P < 0.01 for 2-hour liver samples; P < 0.05 for others). [2] |
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo antibacterial efficacy test: Swiss white mice (15-18 g) were used. A virulent strain of Salmonella typhimurium 11 (mouse-passaged, LD₅₀ determined) was used for challenge. The challenge dose was 50 LD₅₀ (3.5 × 10⁷ CFU) suspended in 0.5 mL of peptone water, administered intraperitoneally. [2]
Ambodryl was dissolved in sterile saline. Mice received a single intraperitoneal injection of the drug (at doses of 0.75, 1.5, or 3 µg/g body weight, corresponding to 0.1 mL of solutions containing 125, 250, or 500 µg/mL, respectively) 3 hours prior to bacterial challenge. Control groups received 0.1 mL saline. [2] For bacterial load assessment, groups of mice were euthanized at 2 or 18 hours post-challenge. Livers and spleens were aseptically removed, homogenized, and viable bacterial counts (CFU/mL) were determined by plating serial dilutions on nutrient agar. Heart blood was also collected for bacteremia assessment and serum drug level analysis. [2] Serum drug level assay: Drug concentration in mouse serum was estimated using a microbiological assay. Filter paper discs soaked with serum were placed on peptone water agar plates seeded with S. typhimurium 11. The diameter of the inhibition zone was measured and compared to a standard curve prepared with known drug concentrations. [2] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
In mice treated with a dose of 3 µg/g of Ambodryl, the concentration of free drug in serum was determined. At 0 and 2 hours post-administration, serum drug concentrations were between 2 and 3 µg/mL. By 18 hours, drug concentrations decreased to between 1 and 2 µg/mL. Serum drug concentrations were similar in uninfected (drug-only) and infected (drug + bacteria) mice. [2]
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Mice treated with ambroxol (at doses up to 3 µg/g) without bacterial infection showed no obvious toxicity or death, indicating that, under experimental conditions, the drug alone (at doses up to 3 µg/g) did not cause acute death in the short term. [2]

| Additional Infomation |
Bromodiphenhydramine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of bromhexidine, a synthetic ethanolamine with histamine H1 receptor antagonism and sedative effects. Bromodiphenhydramine Hydrochloride blocks H1 histamine receptors, thereby preventing symptoms caused by histamine acting on capillary, bronchial, and gastrointestinal smooth muscle, including vasodilation, increased capillary permeability, bronchoconstriction, and gastrointestinal smooth muscle spasms. This drug also prevents histamine-induced mucosal pain and itching.

This study reports its direct broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, which appears to be unrelated to its antihistamine function. [2] The chemical structure of Ambodryl differs from that of its analogue Diphenhydramine in that the former contains a bromine atom, which may contribute to its enhanced antibacterial spectrum and efficacy. [2] The authors believe that these findings may help in screening and developing derivatives with potent antibacterial activity but extremely low antihistamine activity. [2] |
