Perfect for Motion Sickness

My doctor suggested that I use Benadryl for my Golden suffering from severe motion sickness in the car. Since I started using it, my dog's sickness is virtually gone.

Does not work if your animals have heavy allergies

I wouldn’t suggest getting an over the counter allergy medication if your animal has bad allergies. This is a script not worth having in my situation.
