A member asked:
Can i take two extra strength benadryl (diphenhydramine) night time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
50 mg total: You can take a total of 50 mg up to every 4 hours. I've never heard of extra strength Benadryl (diphenhydramine) (they do make a 50 mg tablet, but i've always seen it behind the counter at a pharmacy). All the over-the-counter strengths i've ever seen are 25 mg, so you can take 2 of those.
