Fun fact, Benadryl is actually a fairly powerful local anesthetic. You can pack it into a wound before applying sutures and it is almost as effective as lidocaine. So basically, shooting someone with a benadryl load is probably a bit counterproductive and might just make angry zombies.

Careful with this info. Diphenhydramine can cause nerve damage if at too high a concentration: 5 parts whatever to 1 part Benadryl is the typical dilution for local anesthetics.

You say Benadryl, but do you mean one part diphenhydramine, or one part of the crushed tablets at presumed to concentration?

[–] chuymatt@startrek.website 1 points 8 months ago

The actual chemical. As for adding crushed Benadryl tablets I have zero clue about the concentration and the potential of that to cause damage to the nerves. I was just urging caution.

This sounds like over-simplified information that is totally going to get someone in the ER.

I feel like if you're in a situation where you need to know how to improvise an anaesthetic for sutures, you probably should be in the ER anyway, but can't get to one.

Nah. Hold my beer.
