There is no direct interaction listed between Benadryl (diphenhydramine) and LorTab (Hydrocodone and acetaminophen). Note however that many OTC meds containing diphenhydramine also contain acetaminophen, so your acetaminophen dose much be adjusted accordingly if you take these meds.

Both are classified as different types of drugs. Ambien is a non-benzodiazepine sleep aid, though, in some ways it acts like a benzodiazepine. Lortab (Vicodin, Norco, hydrocodone) is an opiate painkiller.

It's typically possible to take both of them together, as long as the dosage on each is low enough. However, I highly recommend that you do not take higher doses, because of the risk of synergistic effects.

I have, but I wouldn't recommend it. Lorcets are highly addictive and should be taken as directed/prescribed under a physicans supervision. Benadryl is typically benign with several uses(Allergies, sleep aids,etc.). Together I experienced extreme drowsiness and lethargy, inability to concentrate,etc.

How long should you wait to take Lortab after suboxone?

Time to wait to take Lortab after SuboxoneI have been on Suboxone for 11 months. I had to have surgery 4 months ago and was taking 6mgs. Suboxone per day. Before I decided to take Lortab post-op I discussed this with my pharmacist. I was told that one can safely take Lortab 3-4 hours after last Suboxone dose. I decided to go ahead and tolerated the Lortab very well. Conversely, the same time is needed to resume taking Suboxone.

Can you take Claritin and Benadryl at the same time?

No, you do not take two antihistamines at the same time. You may choose either benadryl OR Claritin, but not both. Overdosing on antihistamines causes severe sedative effects which might make you become confused or pass out. You might have trouble breathing. You will get twice the drying out effects, and will almost certainly get a splitting sinus headache or nosebleed.
