I asked my doctor this same question. She says it's not advisable, but if your Allergies are very bad, you can take Zyrtec in the morning, and then Benadryl before bed. Zyrtec makes some people drowsy (although not me) and Benadryl makes most people drowsy, so mixing them can put you to sleep. Zyrtec dries out your system, as well, so drink extra water. Don't do this too often. Too much antihistamine can be bad for you, but doing this occasionally is okay.

Can you mix Aleve and Zyrtec?

Usually, yes, with no problem, and you can drive, too. However, I found if I downed aleve & Zyrtec all at once/together, I became really drowsy/fatigued. This only happened today, and I fell asleep for approx. 3 hours from 11:45am-2:52pm. If you take zyrtec (or aleve...1-2 pills for aleve, 1 for ALL day for zyrtec), space one of them apart. For instance, take the zyrtec (or aleve) first, wait 1-2+ hours, then take the aleve (or zyrtec). Spacing it out a bit leaves no reaction, at least in my experience. (also I am 25/Female, if that makes any difference...I take them both due to allergic reactions to bug bites/mosquito bites, & headaches/muscle aches).
