Benadryl, commonly marketted as an anti-allergen and anti-histamine, contains one single ingredient: 25mg Diphenhydramine HCl.

Unisom and Generic Sleep Aids contain one single ingredient: 50mg Diphenhydramine HCl.

Benadryl costs about 7 bucks. Unisom costs about 4 bucks.

They both have the exact same chemical, just with different on-label uses. But they are both the exact same antihistamine.

Therefore, next time you are buying Benadryl for allergies, just buy some sleep aid instead. It's a larger dose for a single pill, and cheaper!

I don't know about you, but 25mg benadryl puts me out in about 20 minutes, anyway. :D
