Some of the Warnings on the side of Children's Benadryl* (with editoral comments by me.):
Warnings: DO NOT USE
-- if you are now taking a prescription monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) (certain drugs for depression, psychiatric, or emotional conditions or Parkinson's disease), or for 2 weeks after stopping the MAOI drug. If you do not know if your prescription drug contains an MAOI, ask a doctor or pharmacist before taking this product. (Ok, nothing majorly eye-popping, many kids are depressed, psycho, or other wise.)
ASK A DOCTOR OR PHARMACIST BEFORE USE IF YOU ARE
-- taking sedatives or tranquilzers. (So in otherwords, not before bedtime....)
DRUG FACTS
WHEN USING THIS PRODUCT
-- avoid alcoholic drinks. (Sorry, JR, no martinis tonight, what with your runny nose and all...)
-- alcohol, sedatives and tranquilzers may increase drowsiness. (Really covering themselves there, eh?)
-- be careful when driving a motor vehicle or operating machinery ('Cause most 7 year olds have a license...)
-- excitability may occur, especially in children (WTF? I thought this would knock them out so the wife and I could have our fun...)
If pregnant or breast-feeding, ask a health professional before use. (1 - the bold is on the box; 2 - Do I really have to say it?)
(and finally, my favorite warning on the bottle of Children's Benadryl...)
Keep out of reach of children. (Again, the bold is theirs)
I don't think there is anything else to say about this...
Hey,Watch the Frog. Sure.
*Not all warnings are listed here, just the really silly ones.
