Before I fry my liver or overdose? I'm in hives hell. I want to shave off my skin and staple it to JLM's husband. I started prednisone this morning, but that's going to take a bit to finish kicking in. The roids at least made it so my face stopped swelling and my hands stopped swelling (though they still tingle.)
I think it's 2 teaspoons (or 2 pills) every 4-6 hours. I never thought it was a big deal type of drug, but I went to the ER once after I ate scallops for the first time and realized I was allergic. I told them I had taken Benadryl and when they asked how much I just told them I had a bottle of the liquid stuff and just took a big swig. They were horrified. Every doctor and every nurse I saw yelled at me. I was like "My damn throat was closing people!"

I did some icing last night. Oddly, I'm not out of it at all, at least right now anyway, but I think that is because the predisone is balancing out the benadryl, who knows.

The max daily dose is 400mg in a day. Each dose is 25mg, so that's 16 doses. If you take 2tsp at a time, then that's 2 doses. You really don't want to take that much in a day, though.
