Hi Guys,
I did a Google Search on diphenhydramine and MAOI. There were thousands of hits showing the two medications as contraindicated. I have been taking Benadryl off and on for years as a sleep aid with Nardil. Of course you can't mix a decongestant or cough suppressant with the diphenhydramine HCL, but has anybody ever had a reaction from a MAOI and just straight Benadryl?I guess diphenhydramine HCL can cause hypotension in some people. Since I don't get low blood pressure from Nardil or Benadryl, maybe I am just the exception to the rule.
Anyway, just wondering if anybody has had trouble with mixing the two meds?
Thanks,
Jedi
