Brief Answer:
Not safe

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

As you are allergic to something you can take Benadryl as it is a good antiallergic drug.

But it has sedative potential and it should not be taken together with other sedatives.

Do not take triazolam until you are taking benadryl.

As a rule excess sedative drugs are avoided in elderly.
Benadryl will also induce sleep.

Hope I have answered your query.
