A member asked:
I take zyrtec and singulair (montelukast) daily in the morning. is it ok to take benedryl also, in the evening, while visiting friends with pets for the weekend?

Yes you can: You can take extra Benadryl (diphenhydramine) but it would make you drowsy so you should not drive. If those do not help, you might need to seek help from a local allergist.
