I don't know- wouldn't the sedation of two antihistaminics be too much? I barely wake up as it is. My apt. is strewn with alarm clocks, and I don't turn them off on weekends, because I can easily sleep through them if I chose to (which I did this morning). To make sure that I actually wake up, as opposed to get out of bed, take a shower, then collapse on the bed again, i take a Vivarin half an hour before I plan to 'wake.' It's my contingency plan since I stopped taking Ritalin, and implemented because it's the only way i get out of the apt. at an acceptable hour.
What is diphenhydramine's half-life?
