If i take 4 50 mg of equate night time sleep aid is it gonna hurt me?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may be harmful: It may be harmful to take 200mg of diphenhydramine a night, since the recommended dose is 25-50mg a night. That means it is time to work with one's primary care doctor to see what the sleeping problem is all about. The doctor may refer one to a sleep doctor or other specialist as needed.
