    ok, it's not a prescription, but I have a quesiton anyway

    I would say I have a pretty average tolerence for things. every time I take benadryl, it lasts for a really long time. I took 2 last night at about 10 and I'm still feeling lightheaded and dizzy today (I'd say it's about 2:30 as I'm posting this)

    quite strange... can anyone think of an explanation?

    You probably took diphenhydramine or dimenhydrinate, right? Do you mean it's 2:30am or 2:30pm? I wouldn't recommend you use anticholinergic drugs for recreational purposes, as they become quite dangerous at greater-than-recommended doses. It's your decision, though.

    But yes, they are generally long-lasting.

    Benadryl is dimenhydrinate...and she only took two, which isn't exactly enough to trip...

    Try switching to Benadryl 2, which is dyphenhydramine; it may work better for you. ;)

    I also have some incredible tolerances for some drugs, but I can't touch antihistamines with a 10 ft pole. I am stupid for, like, 2 days afterward, and that is on a child's dose. The only time I take them is if I have accidently come in contact with shellfish or get a really bad reaction to someone's cat. Yuck, my sister lives on this stuff, I don't know how she does it.

    NO. . . Benadryl is diphenhydramine. There is NO Benadryl II! Original Dramamine is diphenhydrinate (which converts to diphenhydramine in your body). Dramamine II is meclizine.

    but to make sure its the benadryl effecting you, are you having problems urinating, thats a common side effect of it.
