A member asked:
How long after drinking at least 4 oz of whisky is mixed drinks is it safe to take benadryl (diphenhydramine)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That's a lot: Taking 25 mg of Benadryl (diphenhydramine) will be like having consumed 1-2 extra oz of whiskey in term of drowsiness effect. If you have previously consumed 6 oz of whiskey without problem, this may be ok. However if you had never drunk this much, then I would be cautious with the Benadryl (diphenhydramine).
