Hi Cecilia
I find diphenhydramine OK for sleep. It doesn't affect me the following day like Phenergan does.
>Benadryl (diphenhydramine) is sold over the counter in the U.S. I never even imagined that there would be any reason to restrict it. As far as I know it doesn't do anything other than making you a little sleepy and drying you up.
Like other sedating antihistamines, it has a very minimal potential for misuse.
