Do Antihistamines Cause Cancer?

June 11, 2019

Acupuncture Allergy Relief MinneapolisResearch published in Science News raised the question of whether antihistamines taken for allergies may be linked to cancer. Studies in mice have shown that antihistamines promote the growth of malignant tumors.

Scientists at the University of Manitoba believe that the use of various medications, including antihistamines and antidepressants, may increase the risk for cancer. In February 1994, the Department of Health and Human Services noted an increase in the incidence of cancer in the United States. Scientists at the University of Manitoba believe that the consumption of various medications, including antihistamines and antidepressants, may increase the risk for cancer and may be part of the reason for the increase. They have demonstrated that drugs like Elavil, Claritin, Hismanal, Atarax, Unisom, Prozac, NyQuil and Reactine have all resulted in tumors in animal studies.

Some antihistamines behave like the drug DPPE, which has been linked to enhancing tumor growth by binding to histamine receptors, which in turn interfere with enzymes designed to detoxify and remove poisons from the body. This will also interfere with the system that regulates cell growth. The drugs do not necessarily cause cancer, but can enhance the growth of cancer.

Treat Allergies Naturally

Many of us have used antihistamines as a desperate way to try to control bothersome allergies. But that was before we discovered natural methods.

At our Minneapolis acupuncture clinic we use an effective combination of acupuncture and Chinese herbs to treat allergies, inflammatory problems, sinus and throat congestion, chronic phlegm and asthma.
