A member asked:

Ok to take ranitidine and diphenhydramine?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: There is no interaction between these tow meds so you can take them in combination without interaction complications. However, Diphenhydramine can make you quite drowsy, so be careful if driving or using machinery ( i fall asleep just reading the bottle!).
