Brief Answer:
Possible hangover effect
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
This could be a lngering side effect of the allergy med. Meds like diphenhydramine or cetirizine can do this is some patients particularly if you don't take these meds frequently.
I would try and flush your system a bit - plenty of water - 48 to 64 ounces if you can and I anticipate in 6 to 8 hours you should start to feel better.
Sincerely,
Dr. Galamaga
