Tomorrow we are flying overseas and the 1 st flight is close to 10 hr.
Baby flight sleep medication.
However i have no imminent plans to take my son on a plane any time soon.
Medication is a tempting way to keep your baby quiet for a few hours during a trip but i don t recommend it.
A dad from new zealand with children ages five and two both of whom often take 10 12 hour flights says he has used antihistamines to help his son sleep and that a doctor had recommended it.
Take one of these puppies and you should be asleep within 30 minutes of swallowing.

It s important to keep your baby comfortable.
Safe medication to help baby sleep during flight.
Certain medications that children sometimes take most notably the over the counter antihistamine diphenhydramine or benadryl cause drowsiness in addition to their intended results such as treating allergy symptoms.
Hallo ladies i would like to ask you what medication i can give to my baby so she can sleep during flight.
Bring any medications that your baby needs.
Usually your doctor will prescribe something like ambien rozerem or lunesta.
