A member asked:
What about if the child is 9mnths old? (giving benadryl (diphenhydramine) on top of amoxicillin)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Benadryl (diphenhydramine): If a child was having an allergic reaction to a food or drug, say, amoxicillin, it would be perfectly appropriate to offer Benadryl (diphenhydramine) (diphemhydramine).
