Answers:
You shouldn't take four, but two would be just fine!. 50 mg of diphenhydramine (the generic name for benadryl) is actually approved for short term treatment of insomnia!. Many Brand-name OTC sleep-aids (such as Tylenol or Advil PM, Tylenol Simply Sleep, etc) actually contain diphenhydramine as the active ingredient!. It should not be used for more than a few days though!. After a few days, your body will develop a tolerance to the drowsiness effects of this drug!. If you are having difficulty sleeping for more than a few days, you should see your doctor for a better evaluation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

My doctor told me ten years ago that benadryl is the safest thing on the market!. He said it was much safer than a prescription sleep aid, a lot of people use it to sleep!. It should be unnecessary to take 4, one or two should make you drowsy!. If you need 4 you must be building a tolerance for it!. I had a rash and took benadryl and had the best sleep I have had in years!. I thought about using it nightly!. I did a search on the web and found new research that shows that prolonged use causes damage and changes to the brain, maybe even Alzheimer's!. To me, the risks outweigh the benefits!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Never take more that what it tells you to take on the packet!. It doesnt seem like it will be ok to take 4!. It isnt worth taking more than the stated dose, it could make you seriously ill, or even kill you!.
If you want help with sleeping then buy some sleeping pills from a chemist/pharmacy but you only take one before you go to bed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yeah, it has the same active ingredient that is found in most over-the-counter sleep aids!.
Occasionally, it's o!.k!., but if you have chronic insomnia, see a doctor!.

It'll be okay, but dont take more because then you might start tripping!. Not a good trip either!. Its said to be pretty unpleasant!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Taking Benadryl to help aid in sleep is called DRUG ABUSE!.



Instead, take Melatonin or Valerian root!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
