A member asked:
Why does it take so much medicine to work on me? i can take 200 mgs of benadril with no effect!

Self medication: Self medicating can lead to disastrous results. Clearly overdosage of benedryl if taken at one time excessive dosage over twenty four hours. Would suggest drug disease mismatch see your physician and never exceed recommended dosage. Could create new and more serious disease. More is not better!
