How long should i wait to take a dose of benadryl (diphenhydramine) after having an alcoholic drink?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: Count Benadryl (diphenhydramine) as a drink (some say as much as two but I think it depends on the individual) for its effects on your body and mind , then judge for yourself. Drink +driving= potential disaster.
