Side effects of bendryl &sudafed? my heart was pounding, but i felt extreme drowsyness...i couldnt stop moving and part of my body, my skin was getting purple /red marks? but they go away ...?

Side effects: Sudafed can rarely cause skipped or extra heart beats and more commonly elevates blood pressure if used consistently. It also causes restlessness. Drowsiness is expected effect of Benadryl (diphenhydramine). Unsure about the skin color changes, probably unrelated.
