Are antihistamines addictive or bad for you?




I have problems sleeping. My doc prescribed Rozerim, but it doesn’t work…. He told me to try taking antihistamines.
Also, I am hoping he took it into consideration…. I cant drink alcohol or take Nyquil b/c I have a history of Pancreatitis. Can this affect my pancreas?
Thanks in advance.

To the Pharmacists out there, please help. I have a report on this and I’m having a hard time researching. I can’t find anything in textbooks and in the internet, it’s too broad. I need more specific and accurate. Please Help! Thanks in advance.

I’m pulling an all nighter tonight because it’s the first day of summer break, and I’m doing it for fun, and I want to do it just to say I’ve done it. I have plenty to do to keep me awake, but my sleeping schedule is going to be out of wack after pulling it. What can I do to get it back to normal after pulling the all nighter? Thanks in advance.

I have insomnia and the only thing thats worked for me so far is to take 2mg of lunesta and 50mg of trazodone to fall asleep. I have tried everything and this is the only that has worked that keeps me asleep for 5 1/2 hrs and then i can get back to sleep for antother 1-2 hrs. Has anyone had bad experiences with this? My doctor says its safe to take but im not sure. I wasnt depressed before the insomnia (1 month ago) so im wondering if it will do more harm than good. I tried all the relaxation stuff and nothing works, my mind won’t let me sleep! I’ve been taking it for 3 days now after many nights on unrestful sleep or no sleep. Just wondering what your experiences are… thanks in advance for any advice.

I have just been diagnosed by my sleep specialist after doing an overnight sleep study that I have Upper Airway Resistance Syndrome. He says that my daytime fatigue and sleepiness is due to the fact that I wake up multiple times a night because of my difficulty breathing (consciously and unconsciously). However, he told me that I did reach deep REM sleep and did dream. So I’m not entirely sure I understand why this makes me tired throughout the day. I understand there are five stages of sleep, so if I wake up during any of these stages, mainly the deep sleep stage, does that mean my sleep cycle starts over? Am I tired because I don’t spend an adequate (and constant) amount of time in deep sleep (restorative sleep)?

And what exactly is the difference between REM and NREM and which one gives restorative sleep?

Thanks in advance! Sorry for all the questions.
Oh and one more thing…

What exactly causes the memory/cognitive impairment and difficulty in concentration?

If you have cancer of any kind, would extreme fatigue be a symptom of that? Or are you just severely fatigued once you begin treatment? I know chemo and radiation takes a major toll on the body and that of course causes fatigue, but could you feel that way before you even find out you have cancer?? Thanks in advance.

How long after taking Tylenol PM can I take Benadryl?




I took 2 capsules of Tylenol PM about 3 hours ago to help me sleep. I’ve been taking Tylenol PM for awhile now, on and off. However, I switched to a different body wash earlier tonight and I’m having an allergic reaction to it (itchy rash). How long do I have to wait to take Benadryl? Thanks in advance!

I am averse to using any prescription drugs, over the counter drugs, and I think it’s about time I stopped smoking weed to get myself to sleep. Does anyone know of any herbal remedies, old wives tales, or alternative medicines that will help me get to sleep before 4am?
