My 7 yr old grandaughter has been given childrens benedryl every night since she was about 3 yrs old. Some of the time it is for alergies but mostly I think to help her get to sleep. She is awake for hours after her bedtime without it.I am concerned about longterm side effects .She weights about 47 lbs. and has an active lifestyle. alergic to Pinnecilli and and sulphoric meds.No other known health issues. Very well taken care of.
