Taking precautions before taking antihistamine as your sleep aid

If you are going to use antihistamine as sleep aid, please make sure that you educate yourself about the drugs available. Its side effects if possible and the interactions with the other drugs you are taking. Make sure to start in small doses and increase gradually as what your doctor prescribes you.

Closely monitor the reaction of your body and any side effects that you may encounter. Try not to take it every day but rather irregularly to increase its effectiveness and decrease its side effects. Last, it is always important to consult your doctor first and ask for his advice.
