As your resident pharmacy technician I am obligated to say don't do that.

As a resident pharmacy technician do you think there will ever be a day in which humans and robots can peacefully coexist?
And on a more serious note, is there significant evidence that doing this once or twice causes lasting negative effects? Or does it have to be repeated use or extremely high dosage to do significant neurological damage?
This goes a bit beyond my knowledge tbh. Standard benadryl is 25mg diphenhydramine, and the usual recommended dosage is 25-50mg up to every 4 hours, not to exceed 300mg total per day. 6 tablets is triple a normal dose, 10 is five times as much and is 250/300. You're either gonna get knocked TF out or have some strong side effects.
I don't know for sure about long-term negative effects of overdosing on it, but I do know it is potentially fatal so don't mess with it.

And yes, I do think people and robots can coexist someday!
It's fine, I used to monkey it all the time and I rained out totally purple.
#typical
I once took a box of the damn things over a period of a few hours when I was sick and thinking I was waking up after six hours of sleep when it had only been maybe fifteen, twenty minutes.
At one point, he-man and battle cat came out of the TV, my walls were breathing, and the floor was an ocean. Shit was trippin.
So, you know, don't let your kids self medicate when they're sick.

That's what someone who needs another visit from the hat man would say
