I saw somewhere, I think maybe in Psychobabble Tips, that Benadryl is good for helping during medication withdrawals, especially from effexor. I assume it might be helpful with other meds.
I am withdrawing from 10mg prozac stopped 13 days ago. I am withdrawing from 10 years of 5mg zyprexa, 3 months of 2.5mg zyprexa, and now at 1.25mg. I hope to be all done in a couple days.
What does benadryl do? How does it help with withdrawals? What is its mechanism that makes it helpful? What can I expect from it?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
