A member asked:

At what point should you go to the hospital for a benadryl (diphenhydramine) overdose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Intentional ?: Overdose can occur accidentally or intentionally. Although death by Benadryl (diphenhydramine) overdose is rare, there is an antidote that can be administrated at the hospital to treat the symptoms of overdose. If there is suspicion of an intentional overdose one should always go to the hospital. If an individual refuses to go, immediately call 911. Medical professionals will provide the appropriate care.
