Someone suggested that i try this product after i was bitten by something which caused a lot of swelling. I was warned that it may cause drowsiness so took it in the evening. Within a few hours i had to go to bed because i was so sleepy but by the morning my swelling had completely gone down and other bites i had stopped itching.

Broke out in unexpected Hives from an allergic reaction I have no idea from what. I was miserable and going crazy with the itchiness of the hives. I felt like my whole body was on fire. I took two tabs just before going to bed, and the next day the majority of my hives were gone, those that remained were decreased in size and severity.

I tried taking one caplet but it wasn't effective enough to relieve my symptoms so for my next dosage I took two pills and WOW - all of my symptons were relieved, especially my severe nasal congestion. I could breath clearly again! Sadly, taking two caplets makes me drowsy so I can't take them before heading out to work in the morning. It would be wonderful if there was a non-drowsy version of Benadryl. Also, the price is great for this product. Much more affordable than other allergy medications.

All week I have been itchy, all over my body, even under my arm pits, I wake up in the middle of the night scratching I thought I would try a Benadryl, and it worked along with the poison ivy itch cream. Next morning I was itchy again, took another Benadryl and it went away, don't know if it's allergies, nerves or what but will talk to my doctor about it, will tell him that your product works for me

I have been searching for a bottle of pill just does this! I did look at other allergy pills, but non mention skin problems like this Benadryl. Anyway, I never had this type of itchiness thru out my life (whatever trigger it, allergy, stress or nerves), and it broke out thru-out my arms and legs, the itchiness is just insane and made me unstoppable to scratch it till it bleeds. Other than this pill, for those who suffer the same problem, get yourself a bottom of cream too. There are creams for anti-itch for our problematic skins, that specific for eczema and dermatitis relief (and buy/try at least 2 brands because I found one work better than the other). My skin was red, pain, bloated and in very bad shape. So make sure you use cream other than this Benadryl pill too. The redness on my skin is nearly gone next day, which I would say its VERY helpful. Minimum point : With Benadryl, at least I can get more sleep hours... so don't take this pill during the day! I took two of these and about 30 minutes, zzz starts kick in ;-) Hope you guys can fight this off too!

I always have Benadryl on every camping trip. It has come in handy with bug bites, pollen allergies and other reactions. It got me through a bout of poison ivy as well

Springtime and summertime allergies are easier to deal with now. This is the only allergy product without lactose. Don't put lactose into it or else I'd have nothing to take for my allergies.
