A member asked:
If i smoked weed about an hour and a half ago is it okay to take a benadryl (diphenhydramine) (25mg) before bed ?

Don't do it.: My best medical advice is don't smoke weed or combine this activity with other drugs. There is widespread minimization of the effects of smoking weed. Several states in the U.S. have "legalized" it's use, but it is NOT a benign drug. I have seen patients get psychotic on this drug. Talk to your doctor before using and before combining with other drugs. Hope this helps.

Drowsiness: If weed makes you drowsy , adding Benadryl (diphenhydramine) will likely make you drowsier. Be sure that you are not operating any vehicle and heavy machinery for your own and other people's sake. If you are going to bed , then that's not an issue. Do note that weed is not totally harmless.
