A member asked:
I have been drinking water also, could i take both allergy and cold meds?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Check ingredients: Most allergy medications contain an antihistamine such as diphenhydramine, loratidine, cetirizine or fexofenadine. Cold medications may also include one of these ingredients in addition to other ingredients to control other cold symptoms. antihistamines, particularly diphenhydramine, can cause drowsiness and therefore you should not take two products with this ingredient.
