has anyone started experiencing liver problems? I have been taking Benadryl frequently (for anxiety) and now have these problems. Is it a coincidence? Stormy Georgel

I take Benadryl at night because of drainage, about an half
hour after I take it my throat feels like it is swelling shut. I
donot plan on taking it again.

After taking a generic Benadryl to sleep, awoke four hours later with raising heartbeat and had to go to the emergency room where I was given a shot of a relaxer to slow it down....

Miserable experience

The only side effects of taking two 50 mg capsules of Benedryl for sleeping is that of feeling a bit tired the following A.M.

I have been taking Benadryl for about a week now. The first day wasn't bad but as I continued to take this medication I became more and more restless the next day. I would explode at the least little thing becoming extremely agitated and restless. I stopped taking this med after my throat ,neck and face became sullen. all medications are not safe for everyone, be careful with what you take watch how you react to them.

Only good things to say I take Benadryl to sleep at night because I take concerta for my ADHD and it doesn't wear off quickly so it has the effect of me being tired which is what it is prescribed for me...

Abusing Bedadryl is like taking drugs..VERY DANGEROUS..... a girl in our town Overdosed on it and started eating cigerettes because she had mistaken them as cheetos....She was rushed to emergency room after she had a seizure in the gym of her school

benadryl in IV with blood transfusion left me with extremely restless legs. it was a miserable feeling. I believe that double the usual orescribed amount was given while nurse was "cutting up". Previous experiences left the same result but less intense than this time.

My wife was taking a generic brand of benadryl (from CVS). After a couple of weeks she was breaking out in a skin rash covering 20% of her body and also tightening of the throat. The development of skin rashes and hives prompted her to take more Benadryl (thinking that this would alleviate her symptons) and the result was even more skin rashes. Skin rashes disappeared within 3 days after use of this generic brand of Benadryl ceased.
