Ian,
This is a really good point. My youngest son has mild asthma and allergies.
Last summer the phramsist told me to be careful not to apply Caladryl to
insect bites and then administer Benadryl by mouth as the two done together
can produce an over dose effect. IT is something that I would not have
otherwise thought. I can imagin why you aquired some grey hairs over this one.
