will probably do the same as Benadryl or Dramamine, so don't take any of them together. I gave my daughter Phenegran for teething pain years and years ago - before they told us it was not good for babies. Hmmm....
Actually, anything that produces sleep as a side effect (like Dramamine, Benadryl or Phenegran) doesn't let him get into the REM phase of sleep, which is when the attacks hit. So that's probably why it's helping him.
And, if I were you, Katrina - I'd use that home number for the neuro - print out everything you can from this website - go find him. Even if he IS on the golf course today!!
You've got a weekend to get through yet and tell the neuro your hubby is near suicide (even if that's not even close to being true, sometimes it's the only way to catch their attention.)
