Benadryl (diphenhydramine) + Diazepam: Together may increase side effects of dizziness, drowsiness, difficulty concentrating, impairment in thinking and judgment. Avoid or limit the use of alcohol while on these medications. Avoid driving or operating hazardous machinery until you know how the medications affect you. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Best regards!
