Childrens Benadryl Chewables

Children's Benadryl Chewables are used to temporarily relieve symptoms like a runny nose, sneezing, and itchy, watery eyes caused by hay fever or other upper respiratory allergies. It works by blocking certain natural substances in the body that cause these allergy symptoms. The medication comes in chewable tablet form and is taken every 4 to 6 hours, with children aged 6 to 11 taking 1 to 2 tablets (12.5 mg to 25 mg) and adults or children 12 years and older taking 2 to 4 tablets (25 mg to 50 mg), but you should not take more than 6 doses in a day. A key warning is to avoid using it to make a child sleepy or with any other product that contains diphenhydramine. If you are taking sedatives or tranquilizers, it's important to talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.
