INDICATIONS

Phenergan is used for relieving allergy symptoms, including hives or runny nose. It is used to prevent and control nausea and vomiting during and after surgery. It is also used to help produce light sleep; prevent and treat motion sickness; or treat pain after surgery, in combination with other medicines. Phenergan is a phenothiazine antihistamine. It works by blocking the sites where histamine acts.
