A member asked:
Can you explain if it's possible to wash my mouth with diphen hydramin syrup to reduce my sore throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: This gargle works: mix 3 teaspoons maalox liquid with 2 teaspoons Benadryl (diphenhydramine) liquid and one teaspoon chloraseptic spray (take the spray top off the spray bottle), . Gargle and swish well for at least a minute and spit out. You can repeat every few hours; don't swallow since you'll be loading up on benadryl (diphenhydramine).
