'''Promethazine''' (commonly sold as '''Phenergan''' and also known as an active ingredient in "lean") is a strong muscle relaxant and sedative as well as a weak antipsychotic of the phenothiazine class of medications. It is used primarily for muscle relaxation, preoperative sedation, and nausea. It is also used as an antihistamine, but medications such as [[diphenhydramine]] can serve this purpose just as well with the bonus of being over-the-counter and not a strong sedative. | '''Promethazine''' (commonly sold as '''Phenergan''' and also known as an active ingredient in "lean") is a strong muscle relaxant and sedative as well as a weak antipsychotic of the phenothiazine class of medications.
