Question/Comment:

I started taking Benadryl Allergy Sinus about 2 weeks ago because I couldn't seem to get my other allergy meds to work for me. So far its doing ok, but I have been having dreams and acting them out in my sleep since I started taking this. For ex: sitting up reaching for things or getting out of bed trying to find things. Has anyone else had this reaction? I've had this happen when I was taking Inderal for my migraines so I had to stop it.

Answer/Reply:

Not me, but I have had allergies just for worrying about something too much, not necessarily being sick all the time. Perhaps you have had something on your mind right before going to sleep and/or it is messing around with your other medications, if any. Is it frequent?
