Taking zyrtec and benadryl (diphenhydramine) at the same time okay?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The combination can cause increased drowsiness; however, if you are taking zyrtec for allergies and you have an allergic reaction, you can take an additional benadryl (diphenhydramine). You should always discuss these interactions with your doctor.
