Title: Pre treating with Benadryl before procedure
Post by madelyn46 on 01/17/14 at 07:19:06

My daughter is having a specialized MRI test next week requiring contrast. She will pre treat with Benadryl. What is the dose she should take? This is in addition to the usual anti histamine (claritin) and h2 blocker (she takes Prevacid) she takes every morning, is that correct? and she then repeats benadryl 2 more times during that 24 hrs. what is the interval for those extra doses and the dosage of benadryl? thanking you inadvance
I am a very new to the topic of mast cell activation. and I thank you for any help with this. She did have contrast several years ago when she had a problem with her eye, but has never had it since.
