Unexplained allery attack

I woke up yesterday with my eyes swollen shut! Ugh. Doctor said allergies - I take a zyrtec everyday but can I take OTC Benadryl at the same time without side effects? I know it can cause drowsiness.

Well, there are days when I have to take something fast-acting above my regular antihistimines. I take two of them and still get away with a small dose of benadryl. You'll be tired and pretty dried out, but it won't hurt you. Just make sure you don't drive anywhere.

Oh, also, try Sudafed first. I am allergic to that, so Benadryl is my only other option. If you don't react to it though, it actually does better than Benadryl. I really wish I could take it.
