Will Benadryl Help Me Sleep?
I will be stopping 12.5 mcg fentanyl patch on Wed. after having tapered from 100 in the past several months. I usually have restless leg syndrome for several days. I'm worried that completely stopping the med will make for worse withdrawal. Can benedryl help me to sleep?
