Can Benadryl Be Taken While On Prednisone?

I am on 20mg of prednisone twice a day for bronchial asthma. I started Tuesday and think it is about a 5 day supply. I am unable to sleep and was wondering if it is ok to take one cold capsule/Benadryl to help me sleep. Cancel my request for an answer I was not aware there was a charge.

Hi,

There are no reported interactions for simultaneous intake of Benadryl along with Prednisone.

So you can take it without problems.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
