Answers:

Yes, they can be used together.

Benedryl is an anti-histamine. It blocks the effects of the naturally occurring chemical histamine in the body.

Singulair is a leukotriene inhibitor. Leukotrienes are substances in the body that are associated with the inflammation and constriction of airway muscles and the accumulation of fluid in the lungs, all of which occur during an asthma attack.
