Either is very safe, even at high dosages, and just 2 or 3 dramamine would knock me out. In my days before 12 Steppers, that was the safest and least side effecty thing I took. And note, regardless of what else I was abusing, the dramamine always put me to sleep.
Yep. Benadryl, even just one, was just the thing back when I was using cocaine daily. (Kids, dont do that.)
Back in the day, one could mail order bottles of 100 diphenhydramine tablet (IIRC, that is the moniker) bottles from the skeezy ads in the back of humor magazines and worse. I'd order them 10 bottles at a time for a price break and to save on S/H.
And there were other pills that could be acquired that way too; caffeine (up to 357 mg/pill), ephedra (I did scads of that), the decongestant drug that you have to ask for at the pharmacy now, (I forget precise name) and other nasties.
Curiously, in nearly 3 decades of 12 Stepping, I've encountered damn few others that abused ephedra, (or considered their use of it abuse maybe) although a nice lady I know made a meeting topic of it once, along with other OTC(ish) drugs she fancied.
A friend of mine dated a guy who's roommate blew up their kitchen trying to make something (not meth) and was lucky the damn house didn't burn down.
And there's more stuff I won't discuss here . . .

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
