Effectiveness
How Advil Pm Affects PatientsDiphenhydramine is a drug with multiple properties, including anti-histamine, anti-emetic, anti-vertigo, and sedative. It works by blocking histamine from attaching to H1 receptors on cells, which reduces spasms and congestion caused by histamine. These receptors can be found in the gut, uterus, large blood vessels, bronchial muscles, and elsewhere. It also works by stopping nausea signals from reaching the brain, and by reducing activity of the vestibular apparatus.
How Advil Pm works in the bodyDiphenhydramine works by blocking a type of receptor called the histamine 1 receptor, which are found in many parts of the body such as the respiratory system, cardiovascular system, gastrointestinal tract, and central nervous system. When stimulated, these receptors cause an increase in vascular permeability and other reactions that can cause allergic reactions. By blocking these receptors, diphenhydramine reduces these reactions. It also functions as an antimuscarinic, which means it blocks a type of receptor that affects movement. Finally, diphenhydramine is also thought to act as a local anesthetic by blocking sodium channels in cells.

Advil Pm Reviews: What are patients saying about Advil Pm?
5Patient Review
3/6/2015 I took two pills last night and they really worked! I slept soundly for eight hours, which is something that often eludes me. I woke up feeling a little bit groggy but overall way better than if I had only gotten two hours of sleep. Will definitely use this medication again in the future when needed.
5Patient Review
12/5/2014 I was pleasantly surprised by how well these worked. I didn't have any issues falling asleep, and I woke up feeling refreshed each morning.
5Patient Review
1/19/2015 I take one of these every night, and it's done wonders for my sleep quality. I'm a 62-year old male, and I can finally get through the entire night without waking up once.
5Patient Review
3/14/2017 Advil PM has helped me a lot with my muscle cramps. I feel much better now and would highly recommend it to others.
4.7Patient Review
4/17/2014 This drug really helps me sleep; however, I've built up a tolerance and now need six pills to get the same effect as when I first started taking two. Additionally, I'm worried about the addiction potential and dangerous side effects like stomach bleeding.
4.3Patient Review
3/27/2014 I haven't experienced any negative side effects. The only time I feel groggy is when I don't get enough sleep, but that's not the fault of the medication.
4.3Patient Review
9/12/2020 Advil PM has vastly improved the quality of my sleep. I'm very pleased with how it works, though I am going to switch to the liquid capsules since they're easier to swallow.
4.3Patient Review
3/3/2018 I have a bad back and tried this drug to relieve pain and help me sleep. It was pretty effective; I slept for 12 hours! I missed my alarm, my phone, and an important meeting. I took two capsules, as directed. Next time I will just try one so that I don't oversleep again.
4.3Patient Review
1/29/2014 I was hesitant to take a pill every night, but AdvilPM really works well. I haven't experienced any negative side effects yet, and I hope that continues in the future.
4.3Patient Review
6/20/2014 This was really effective in helping me fall asleep, and the pain relief I felt from my neck sprain was amazing.
4Patient Review
12/15/2014 Advil pm has been effective for me so far. I take it almost every night, although usually only half a tablet.
4Patient Review
12/22/2016 I have fibromyalgia and often can't sleep because of the pain. Advil PM really helps me get to sleep, and I don't feel groggy in the morning like I would if I took Tylonol3 or sleeping pills.
3.3Patient Review
7/17/2022 I had bad cramps and couldn't get the regular Advil, so the pharmacist gave me this. It didn't do anything for my pain. I used it a second time for milder pain and got some relief then. So overall, I would recommend this medication for very mild pain—and only very mild pain.
3Patient Review
11/9/2013 I took this medication when I was experiencing pain and as a result, had trouble sleeping. I'm not sure if it's safe to mix Advil PM with nortriptyline 10mg; I only did because the pain was really bad and Advil wasn't helping. The side effects I experienced were a sore throat and worse headaches. If anyone could provide some insight, that would be great - I'm only 14.
2.3Patient Review
9/18/2016 I was disappointed with this product. I have difficulty sleeping due to arthritis pain, and took two pills as directed. Not only did it not help me sleep, but the pain wasn't eased either. Furthermore, I had to wait ten minutes for a pharmacist to add it to my file; you can't just buy it off the shelf.
1Patient Review
8/22/2017 I have taken Advil for the past few years on and off. It does not help me sleep, but will lessen any pain I may be in. I have had some pretty bad dreams or nightmares. The one I had this past Thursday was particularly vivid and frightening; it felt as though I was hallucinating rather than dreaming.
1Patient Review
6/27/2015 Advil completely knocked me out last night. I slept for about 15 hours and I'm still feeling really exhausted now. This made work impossible today and didn't do anything to help my headache.
