Baby flight sleep medication.
Certain medications that children sometimes take most notably the over the counter antihistamine diphenhydramine or benadryl cause drowsiness in addition to their intended results such as treating allergy symptoms.
Tomorrow we are flying overseas and the 1 st flight is close to 10 hr.
Take one of these puppies and you should be asleep within 30 minutes of swallowing.
These types of drugs chemically slow your brain s activity so you can get some much needed shut eye.
Safe medication to help baby sleep during flight.
However i have no imminent plans to take my son on a plane any time soon.
Hallo ladies i would like to ask you what medication i can give to my baby so she can sleep during flight.
It s important to keep your baby comfortable.
However hammond does recommend that traveling parents should pack tylenol ibuprofen and benadryl along with a thermometer in their travel pack because benadryl would be used should your child suffer from an allergic reaction.

Usually your doctor will prescribe something like ambien rozerem or lunesta.
Medication is a tempting way to keep your baby quiet for a few hours during a trip but i don t recommend it.
