Some have said it works great at 50 mg for sleep and others say that dose would have them flying off the walls. It's not unusual for people to have opposite reactions to meds, but I'm glad I found this out.
I may buy the cheap stuff and try it, though, to see if it works for me. Anybody else have this opposite reaction to Benedryl? |
I have that problem with Sudafed. It wires me like crazy! Benadryl helps me sleep.
I am very med sensitive and have reactions to weird stuff. I am one of about 5 people in the world (that I know of) who are anaphylactic reactive to Zantac. One of those tiny little pills almost killed me. I am also allergic to Salmon, but no other fish. Must have something to do with my allergy to iodine. None of the docs have been able to figure that one out. I can't even have anything cooked on the same grill with Salmon. I get tired of going to the ER...
Yes, I have a MedicAlert tag...
