Having done that for awhile once? It basically is, and that is the typically OTC recommended dose.

Sure, but you should always check basic mg/kg numbers before you take a drug. Diphenhydramine can be hallucinogenic in high doses.

They also sell 1-gram extra-strength Tylenol pills OTC, but that's a very high dose for an average person. And what do you know, acetaminophen is the leading cause of acute liver failure in the US.

What is your point exactly?

That typical OTC doses for a common antihistamine ARE probably equivalent in impairment to being legally drunk for most people is mine?
