A member asked:
Will benadryl (diphenhydramine) temporarily suppress a human bite? dont want anyone to know
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really.: A human bite is dangerous if skin was broken and almost always needs antibiotics (generci Augmentin rx of choice). If skin was not penetrated, i cannot understand how taking Benadryl (diphenhydramine) can help.
