Zzzquil : Helps you sleep because it contains benadryl. (diphenhydramine) Benadryl has idiosyncratic reaction in some producing tardive dyskinesia, which causes uncontrollable movement of limbs, is permanent and has no good treatment. I would never use Benadryl unless person having severe allergic reaction. No tylenol (acetaminophen) pm! sleep hygiene best: www.Sleep foundation.Org/article/ask-the-expert/sleep.
