Still makes me drowsy, but it's my best last resort for serious allergy situations
Despite all my other allergy medications, which may vary according to what's going on, my doctor says I can take diphenhydramine for breakthrough symptoms like hives and itching when I have an insect bite or an allergy to food or medication. It's a good old reliable that has kept me out of the emergency room more than once. I always keep some on hand.
