A member asked:
Might i use benadryl (diphenhydramine) itch cream(extra strength) with benadryl (diphenhydramine) allergy pills?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Benadryl (diphenhydramine): Not sure what you are treating. The cream works best to relieve itchy insect bites. The pill is for more systemic allergies. You can use them together but i don't see what for.
