I have used benadryl the last couple nights for sleep. It works good. Just 25mg. (and the label says the max dose is 300mg/day? Yikes. Talk about sedation) But silly me, I like to know all I can about drugs I take. I haven't done exhaustive hunting, but in some basic searches I haven't found much information on what benadryl does. Some basic things such as antihistimine, helpful for parkinsons, over the counter serotonin reuptake inhibtor.
Does anyone have more detailed knowledge of benadryl? For example, is it an SSRI? And if so, is it a weak one or a strong one? Does it affect dopamine? Norepinephrine? Choline? Other?
