A member asked:
Is it possible for me to withdraw from benadryl (diphenhydramine) safely?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stopping benadryl (diphenhydramine): Benadryl (diphenhydramine) does not cause addiction or dependent like pain medications so you should not have withdrawal from stopping it. The symptoms that you use Benadryl (diphenhydramine) to treat might flare up after stopping it though. That might be the withdrawal you mention in the question.
