Does Benadryl For Sore Throat Cause Side Effects?
This afternoon my throat started feeling as if there was something in it, way in back, that caused me to have difficulty swallowing. It got worse through the afternoon. Someone suggested taking a benadryl. I take Tikosyn, warfarin, and metoprolol. Will benadryl give me more problems?

Hi,
The most common side effect experienced with Benadryl is sleepiness. However, it is safe for you to take in combination with your other medications.
