Hi can anyone help me with buying antihistamines in uk. I have managed to buy zyrtec which has the ingredient cetrizine in but I am also trying to get hold of benedry because of the diphenhydramine within it but in the uk benedry does not have this ingredient, instead it has dihydrochloride. Would anyone know which antihistamine wld include diphenhydramine pls ? Thank you x

In the UK, "Benadryl" does not have diphenhydramine. Diph. is sold as a sleep aid in the UK instead of an antihistamine so you need to look in the sleep aid section.

All antihistamines sway pink though so don't worry if you can't find a specific one.

The only two that I know to be safe when taken together, however, are cetirizine and diphenhydramine (confirmed independently by both doctors and pharmacists, directly to me, that they are safe together - as long as you are not breastfeeding that is). So I would not mix any other types of antihistamines besides those two.
