Benadryl has been a brand in the US for decades longer than Cetirizine has even been in use, and they never changed the active ingredient when new antihistamines became available. Good thing too, cetirizine doesn’t do shit for my allergies compared to DPH, and most other allergy med brands use cetirizine.
Why does American Benadryl have this Diphenhydramine in, instead of Cetirizine?

That’s sold as Zyrtec here
We have both. I prefer the dram.
