It's actually an MRAP. Might have been one of those "moreso for me" gifts

Turns out Oshkosh and Oshkosh B'gosh make different stuff. My sister is going to be confused at the baby shower I think.

Not soley based on diphenhydramine but anti cholinergics in general, on a population 65 and older. Poor data.

Maybe if you try to trip by taking 100+mg, or use it every single night for a period of decades, sure. If you have a chronic sleep problem you should talk to a doctor, like any chronic issues, before using OTC drugs for any extended length of time. But for short term use you're just spreading misinformation. Cite your sources or don't do that.

But if you NEED to fall asleep in the next hour 25-50mg of diphenhydramine, 1-2 normal Benadryl or Advil/Tylenol/Motrin PM(with they're active ingredients) does a pretty reliable job if you let it. You have to get in bed and give it a shot at working but I find little failure with it. You will however be somewhat groggy in the morning, drink water.

I even think 1 mg is too much. It's active in microgram doses. Also read the Wikipedia page, it's poorly regulated and pills can contain upwards of 4x what they say.

I got to make a joke and also learn something!

Best OTC sleep aid there is. Melatonin is not what everyone thinks it is.
