Does Intake Of Benadryl Help In Curing Wheezing At Night?

I am currently suffering from a lingering summer cold , I have been using mucinex to help with the chest congestion and coughing which seems to help during the day, however at night I have been wheezing which prevents me from getting a restful nights sleep. Was wondering if benadryl would alleviate the wheezing or perhaps loratidine? Thank you

Hello,

Yes, can use either Benadryl or loratadine at night. You can also apply cold balm on your chest and upper back before going to sleep. Aerosol therapy can also help.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
