While your dog can safely take either of these medicines alone, combining them could make him ill. Only do so on the specific advice of a veterinarian.
Benadryl is taken to suppress allergies, however Prednisone suppresses the immune system, and therefore your allergies as well. If you are on Prednisone, taking Benadryl is pointless because Prednisone is an infinitely stronger anti-allergen.
Can antihistamines be taken at the same time as prednisone?Yes you can take Benadryl and Prednisone together. If you're having an allergic reaction, you can add Pepcid AC with the Benadryl to help control itching. Pepcid AC affects the histamines that Benadryl does not. The Prednisone will basically help treat the allergic reaction from the inside but doesn't help itching.
yes
yes
Should I stop taking chlorpheniramine if I am now taing prednisone.

No you do not want to take two medications that make you drowsy at the same time.
You can take them at the same time, so you don't need to wait.
Gas and Nausea from the Advil. Dipenhydramine will make you sleepy.
For some people, taking naproxen and prednisone at the same time is a bad idea. Contact your health provider for advice specific to your situation.
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.
I am currently taking prednisone also, 50mg a day. It was making me hyper at night time even if I did take it early in the morning, So I talked with my Dr. and she told me 25mg of plain ol' Benadryl an hour before bed would work perfect. Last night was the most sleep I have had in weeks. I woke up feeling better physically and mentally.
