What is in the PM that isn't in regular advil?
This could be fun: [link]
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Advil PM has diphenhydramine, which is Benadryl. You don't need an allergy pill with it, and doubling up on antihistamines can really dry you out.

ok to take both an allergy pill and advil pm?
What allergy pill?
t edit x-post! I was just going to say, don't take benadryl with advil pm, because you'll be doubling up on diphenhydramine.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's probably the same thing as benadryl, which is diphenhydramine. I would guess that a double dose won't kill you, but you might ask Steph.
It might leave you really groggy tomorrow, though.

I had an allergist who recommended taking two diphenhydramine at bedtime.

I actually take 2 at a time, but if it's not something msbelle regularly takes, I would recommend taking 1, whether it's the diphenhydramine in the advil pm, or otherwise. Because it can knock you on your butt if you don't regularly take it.
(I think I could operate heavy machinery after taking 2 -- they don't make me sleepy any more.)

OK, just took the advil PM. Thanks.

That was some glorious x-posting.
I hope you sleep well and feel better tomorrow, msbelle.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
