It's been kind of a bad/restless day and I was going to take the Seroquel my doc gave me for sleep. But I also need to take a Benadryl before I scratch my nose off my face. The drug-checker doesn't show any interaction, but I know it doesn't always show things that might happen.
Anyone know anything more...?

Benadryl is often used to combat dystonic reactions to phenothiazines like atypical antispychotics, so this combination is acceptable, though synergistically sedating. You might need some better antihistamines like Allegra or Claritin for a better handle on the itchies.

*heh* I take Zyrtec during the day, but I only get a certain amount free every year so I try to take the OTC stuff during the night.
Synergistically sedating is fine with me, I've been sleeping LOUSY and restless and waking up worrying and with nightmares...not fun.sl
