You may want to look at this information...
Benadryl Side Effects
General: Urticaria, drug rash, anaphylactic shock, photosensitivity, excessive perspiration, chills, dryness of mouth, nose, and throat.
Cardiovascular System: Hypotension, headache, palpitations, tachycardia, extrasystoles
Hematologic System: Hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis
Nervous System: Sedation, sleepiness, dizziness, disturbed coordination, fatigue, confusion, restlessness, excitation, nervousness, tremor, irritability, insomnia, euphoria, paresthesia, blurred vision, diplopia, vertigo, tinnitus, acute labyrinthitis, neuritis, convulsions
GI System: Epigastric distress, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation
GU System: Urinary frequency, difficult urination, urinary retention, early menses
Dramomine SIDE EFFECTS AND SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS:
The most common side-effect of dimenhydrinate is sedation which can vary from slight drowsiness to deep sleep, and including inability to concentrate, lassitude (lack of energy, fatigue, lethargy), dizziness, hypotension (low blood pressure) muscular weakness and inco-ordination. Other side-effects include gastro-intestinal disturbances (affecting the stomach and intestines) such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea or constipation and epigastric pain (pain in the upper, middle region of the stomach). Headache, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), elation and depression, irritability, nightmares, anorexia (lack of appetite), difficulty in micturition (passing of urine), dryness of the mouth, tightness of the chest and tingling, heaviness and weakness of the hands may occur. In infants and children it may act as a cerebral (brain) stimulant. Symptoms of stimulation in adults include insomnia (inability to sleep), nervousness, tachycardia (increased rate of heart beat), tremors, muscle twitching and convulsions (seizures and fits).
Large doses may precipitate fits in epileptics. Allergic (unusual sensitivity to medicines) reactions and anaphylaxis (sudden, life threatening severe allergic reaction) may occur. Blood dyscrasias including agranulocytosis (severe decrease in a particular type of white blood cells) and haemolytic anaemia (lack of red blood cells due to destruction of circulating cells) may occur. Dimenhydrinate has anticholinergic properties and should be used with care in conditions such as glaucoma (raised pressure in the eye) and prostatic hypertrophy (enlargement of prostrate gland). The anticholinergic effects of atropine and tricyclic antidepressants may be enhanced by dimenhydrinate.
Dimenhydrinate may mask the warning symptoms of damage caused by ototoxic medicines and may effect the metabolism of other medicines in the liver. It may enhance the sedative effect of central nervous system depressants including alcohol, barbiturates, hypnotics, narcotic analgesics, sedatives and tranquillisers.
KNOWN SYMPTOMS OF OVERDOSAGE AND PARTICULARS OF ITS TREATMENT:
Symptoms: Convulsions may occur with overdosage. Also coma respiratory depression (abnormally slow and/or shallow breathing). Stimulation may occur in children.
Treatment: Symptomatic and supportive.
“…the bizarre truth about these OTC medicines is that they are very powerful psychoactive drugsâ€Â

I cant wait for reno!!! But I heard they got something like 17 inches of snow! You dont think they would call the meet on account of snow do you?!
No. It's all inside. A place like Reno has lots of snow plows, to get the road from the airport to the hotel clear.
Despite all the storms that have been hitting the Sierras recently, they predict that the weather is going to be pretty clear for Summit. By that time there should be no problem getting on the roads. Up until that point though, the road crews will be pretty busy. On the news tonight they had all of these people standing by their front doors with the snow basically 10 feet high on each side. CRAZY for CA
dont worry bout it too much. i live only an hour away from reno, the snow isnt bad. i dont think that they are going to call the biggest pole vault meet of the year for some snow. i will keep all of you up to date thoughopalkak wrote:just when things seem like they are going great some one comes and pulls the rug out from under you, I guess all you can do is try and catch your balance.
Accomplish what you can...Defy what you cannot!!!
