To solve the question, we need to identify which pair of drugs listed are classified as antihistamines. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Antihistamines**: Antihistamines are drugs that block the action of histamine, a substance in the body that causes allergic symptoms. They are commonly used to treat allergies, hay fever, and cold symptoms. 2. **Analyze the Options**: We have four options to consider: - **Option A**: Bromphenidamine and delfenidine - **Option B**: Iproniazid and phenelzine - **Option C**: Chlorodiazepoxide and equinil - **Option D**: Verunal and Valium 3. **Identify Antihistamines**: - **Option A**: Bromphenidamine is indeed an antihistamine used to relieve allergy symptoms. Delfenidine is also an antihistamine. - **Option B**: Iproniazid and phenelzine are monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) and are used as antidepressants, not antihistamines. - **Option C**: Chlorodiazepoxide is a benzodiazepine used for anxiety, and equinil is also a tranquilizer. Neither are antihistamines. - **Option D**: Verunal (a brand name for a sedative) and Valium (a benzodiazepine) are also not antihistamines. 4. **Conclusion**: The only pair that consists of antihistamine drugs is **Option A**: Bromphenidamine and delfenidine. ### Final Answer: The correct pair of antihistamine drugs is **A.
