slang starting with 'p'
Phenegren
- Definition:
- The erroneous pronunciation of Phenergan.
Phenergan is an antihistamine that relieves nasal stuffiness and inflammation and red, inflamed eyes caused by hay fever and other allergies. It is also used to treat itching, swelling, and redness from hives and other rashes; allergic reactions to blood transfusions; and, with other medications, anaphylactic shock (severe allergic reaction).
Phenergan is also used as a sedative and sleep aid for both children and adults, and is prescribed to prevent and control nausea and vomiting before and after surgery and to prevent and treat motion sickness. It is also used, with other medications, for pain after surgery. - Usage:
- Use of phenegren should be avoided in pediatric patients with signs and symptoms suggestive of Reye's syndrome or other hepatic diseases, because its extrapyramidal effects may be confused with central nervous system signs of undiagnosed primary disease
