Can I take benadryl and cough syrup at the same time?
06.June, 2010
I am having severe allergy problems, at this point, I’ve been coughing and sneezing so much that my voice is gone. Is it ok for me to take a benadryl (diphenhydramine hydrochloride) and cough syrup DM (dextromethorphan Hbr and Guaifenesin) at the same time? I haven’t taken either one yet, so if you have any other advice for my allergy problems that would be great.
Yes you can take the two together. However, don’t if you plan on driving or operating machinery. Field sobriety checks will indicate you are DUII. There are no known negative drug interaction between these medications and they do not duplicate treatments. DM is an expectorant and cough suppressant and has no antihistamine capacity.
