Benadryl (diphenhydramine) now: Take benadryl (diphenhydramine) 50 mg now and go to an UC center immediately in case you get worse before it works! If you have lip swelling or throat swelling or trouble breathing call 911. Don't mess around with allergic reactions Obviously read labels and never take anything with acetaminophen in it again!

Benadryl (diphenhydramine): if you are not allergic, take 2 tablets of benadryl (diphenhydramine) asap. If you develop any difficulty breathing, or trouble swallowing, call 911 right away. good luck
