sounds like you just did...
We have mixed small(ish) doses of Valium with benadryl in order to get a deeper sleep on long flights. Haven't had any problems. The benadryl seems to amplify the effect and actually cause sleepiness, while Valium on its own just has a relaxing (but not necessarily sleeping) effect. Just be careful not to take too much benadryl or you will be REALLY TIRED for a LONG TIME. And no, I don't mean death. : ) Just tired. *Doses have been 10-20 mg of Valium and a swig of children's liquid benadryl* And please note that WE ARE NOT DOCTORS so please CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN if you have any questions!!!!
Highly not recommended but it is not fatal.
can diabetic take benadryl
Promathazine and Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) are antihistamines. Both have remarkable sedative action. They should not be taken together and with Valium also. All the three drugs will sedate the patient heavily.

can i take maca and valium
Can I take morphine and valium together
No, do not take 8 Benadryl at a time to help you sleep. You should not take 4 Benadryl either. If you are having trouble sleeping, you need to speak to your doctor.
Benzodiazepines are the best anxiety medications, ie. Valium, Ativan, Klonopin, Xanax. However, if it is for a child, antihistamines seem to work best. Benadryl and Gravol are two examples.
