A member asked:
Is it safe to have wine with benadryl (diphenhydramine)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not: It's important to avoid mixing alcohol (which can lead to drowsiness and impaired reaction time) with Benadryl (diphenhydramine) an antihistamine that can also lead to drowsiness and impaired reaction time. These side effects can be worse with higher doses of both Benadryl and alcohol.
