Can Promethazine, Codeine And Benadryl Be Taken Together?
Question: Can I take promethazine codeine and benadryl
Brief Answer:
Take promethazine codeine!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
Promethazine and benadryl do the same job. Promethazine will also work as a sleep aid. My advice is that you should choose just one and take. I will recommend that you take promethazine and codeine. Suspend the OTC benadryl for now. My main concern is that you should not be overdid on the same drug type that can cause severe sedation and dizziness.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
