Ladies, I need some advice!

So I've had strep and upper respitory infection and I'm on antibiotics. But, now my chest is hurting and having trouble breathing. I go see my OB tomorrow so I'll figure it out. My question is...I know I can take benadryl...can I take two tonight so that I can get a little relief and SLEEP!?! Thanks in advance! :-)

Well it says you can take two?? I just usually take one because I'm afraid it would over do it...

Don't double the dose, but buy some Melatonin (you can get it at any pharmacy or grocery store) and you can take those together without side effects. Melatonin is the chemical your brain produces to make you sleepy.
