Misc Diphenhydramine solubility in ethanol (aka making a nightcap)

[beanzeit]

So SWIM is interested in infusing alcohol (probably vodka) with diphenhydramine (probably benadryls). Has anyone ever done this? SWIM is mostly interested in correct dosage, so as not to kill anyone. SWIM has 25mg diphenhydramine pills. These presumably have some coating and filler. If they were to be crushed, how many (approximately), do you think should be infused in a 500ml bottle of vodka to yield approximately the equivalent of a 25mg oral (pill) dose per 20ml shot?I assume "infusion" time is relevant to a point, but that after a few days of infrequent swishing, the job would be done.

First, read the rules, comrade, no SWIM. Second, why diphenhydramine? How about dolyaximine Succinate. The second one is smoother.

And why would you make an infusion? It's way easier to just down a pill with a shot, no need to make an infusion.
Plus imo combining alcohol and diphenhydramine is a bad idea, if you take more than just 25mg DPH with 20ml vodka.

I would do an infusion, just to see if it worked. No reason agreed, but better start here than with some fent analogue.
