[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 233823, member: 1233"] If your child isn't sleeping this is a very common suggestion. Benadryl is sedating, so it does help many people sleep. It is in many of hte PM medicines to help people sleep. Many docs also recommend melatonin, which can be very helpful and usually won't interfere with other medications. anyway, benadryl most likely won't HURT. We recently use a LOT of it with my 13yo daughter because elavil (given to prevent migraines) gave her extra-pyramidal responses - she shook all over all day. It was scary and the ONLY thing that gave her any relief was 3 benadryl capsules. 3 is a LOT, but it is what the pediatric ER in a nearby city recommended, and her neuro backed that up. I hope you can all get some sleep soon. It is hard when one child isn't sleeping through the night, esp if they get into mischief. [/QUOTE]
