The Ecology of Medical Care Among Israeli Military Aviators.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Research indicates that first-generation antihistamine usage may impair pilot performance by increasing the likelihood of vestibular illusions, spatial disorientation, and/or cognitive impairment. Second- and third-generation antihistamines generally have fewer impairing side effects and are approved for pil...
