damn drowsiness

MIDOL 20 tablets $4.99
active ingredients:
acetominophen 500mg
Pamabrom 25mg
caffeine

Generic Menstrual Pain Relief Midol substitute 40 tablets $4.50
active ingredients:
acetominophen 500mg
Pamabrom 25mg
pyrilamine maleate 15mg (Antihistamine)

which would you choose? Probably the generic, more pills, less money, basically the same ingredients, right? So I did. Then 30 minutes in to class (an hour after I took two pills) my eyes start drooping. For 3 hours I fought sleep realizing that I am WAY too susceptible to antihistamines and their drowsiness effects. Darn.
