Question 1

what will happen if i take 4 or 5 benadryl at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Benadryl overdose: It will cause extreme drowsiness..confusion,weakness,ringing in the ears,blurred vision,large pupils,dry mouth,flushing,fever ,shaking,insomnia and possible seizures depending on the dosage.

Question 2

can you take benadryl (diphenhydramine) and hydrocodine at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Be careful: Benadryl (diphenhydramine) can be used with hydrocodone to decrease itching and nausea that sometimes happens with hydrocodone. Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and hydorocodone, however, are both sedating and together cause additive drowsiness. Also both drugs independently can cause constipation and urinary hesitancy, so taken together these problems also can be worse. Be careful and discuss with your doctor.

Question 3

can you take benadryl (diphenhydramine) and nyquil at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Not best idea: Nyquil has an antihistamine in it already, and benadryl (diphenhydramine) is an antihistamine so you run the risk of overdosing on the antihistamine component.  This may cause drowsiness, dryness and can possibly effect respiratory drive.  So, not a good idea to take both together.

Question 4

what will happen if you take three benadryl (diphenhydramine) liqui gels at the same time?

Accepted Answer

BENADRYL (diphenhydramine): Each capsule contains 25 mg of Diphenhydramine (benadryl (diphenhydramine)).  75 mg of Benadryl (diphenhydramine) exceeds the normal maximum dose of 50 mg.  I would not recommend exceeding 50 mg.  The risk is extreme dressiness and perhaps difficulty in functioning.   If you are taking other medications that may cause dressiness, the effect will be magnified by also taking 75 mg of benadryl (diphenhydramine).  Do not exceed 50 mg for any one dose.

Question 5

can i take benadryl (diphenhydramine) and claritin at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Antihistamine is safe even with 4x the average daily dose.  The major side effects would be dry mouth and drowsiness ( the latter much less common if one uses the non-sedating type).  I believe reactine is equivalent to Claritin (loratadine) in the us.  Short answer- it is ok.

Question 6

could you take dimetapp and benadryl (diphenhydramine) at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Not recommended.: Caution advised: combo may increase risk of CNS depression, anticholinergic and other adverse effects (additive effects)

Not recommended, unless prescribed by a physician for a specific reason.

Question 7

can you take hydrocodone and benadryl (diphenhydramine) at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but caution: Benadryl (diphenhydramine) can be used with hydrocodone to decrease itching and nausea that sometimes happens with hydrocodone. Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and hydorocodone, however, are both sedating and together cause additive drowsiness.  Also both drugs independently can cause constipation and urinary hesitancy, so taken together these problems also can be worse. Be careful and discuss with your doctor.

Question 8

is it ok for child to take claritin and benadryl (diphenhydramine) at the same time?

Accepted Answer

yes, but: Yes, but why would they?  They are both antihistamines and therefore do the same job.

Question 9

is it ok to take prescribed tramadol and benadryl (diphenhydramine) at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Be careful.  Both can be sedating.  It is however ok to take them together as there is no interaction other than sedation.  Do not drive after doing so in order to allow you to monitor any additive sedation.

Question 10

can i take benadryl, montelukast, and flixotide at the same time?

Accepted Answer

Yes: No drug interactions were found using the Drugs.Com drug interaction checker for fluticasone propionate, montelukast  &amp; Benadryl (diphenhydramine).
