Dianne – By the way Benadryl in the U.S. is diphenhydramine, an anti-allergy medicine and is not the same as Benadryl in Australia, which is an anti-mucous cough medicine. It’s part of the ridiculousness of using the same or similar brand names for different products in different countries. It can make it very confusing. Another example is that Biaxsig in Australia is one brand name for roxithromycin – another one is Rulide. This drug is not available in the U.S. Biaxin in the U.S. (a very similar name) is a brand name for clarithromycin. Lynnie
