Benadryl question?

Question

so, stupidly, i took 11 pills (25mg per tablet) of this last night. i was ok today, then 24 hours after i took those, i took 8 more. its been 7 hours since then, i feel ok. i can see fine and everything. i'll be ok, right ? btw, I'm NEVER doing it again. i just need some reassurance

Answer 1

You need to call the poison control hotline or go in to the ER NOW.  Overdosing on any drug can cause death but it can also cause organ damage that isn't instant - that is the damage could be going on but not having any symptoms for days to weeks to months after.

Answer 2

I suggest you contact a doctor.  You may be needing something stronger for sleep/allergy or you just may need some other type of counsel or treatment to assist with making sound decisions.

Answer 3

That is a lot.  But i honestly believe you will be fine.  I'm 17 and trust me some of my class mates do stupid things.  Like take a bunch of pills (triple C's) to get high of them.  If your feeling fine, not vomitting or anything then i believe your alright.  But if your nervous idk what kind of Health Care you have but if you have like Kaiser, or Blue Cross, they have 24hr Nurse Advice somewhere in there systems and you can just call and ask to make sure everything is okay.

Answer 4

That is stupid, no offense.  Not only can you put yourself to sleep, permanently, this way.  You can destroy your organs in very short time.  Why on earth would you want to overdose on this for ANY reason?  It's to help with allergies...and sometimes sleep.  But ALL meds are chemicals.  They may help with one thing, but hurt you in other ways, we call these SIDE EFFECTS. Read up on a website about Benadryl.  But honestly, you need to care about what goes into your body.  Take as FEW man made chemicals as possible.  Talk to your doctor about whatever problems you are having that make you want to overdose on an allergy med.
