Actually it is an antihistamine - doxylamine. The alcohol has a synergistic effect with the antihistamine.

Probably antihistamine. Antihistamine in my system is like a horse tranquilizer. Even if its daytime stuff, if thats an ingredient, Im out cold for like, 9 hours.

It used to be almost 40% alcohol. Now it's much, much less - but the antihistamines in it help bring the sleep on too.

It's the antihistamine. There's not NEARLY enough alcohol in a dose to affect you, although it can potentiate the effect of the antihistamine.

Look & see if 'diphenhydramine' is in the ingredients. I don't have a bottle, or I would do it for you. That is benadryl and is often used as a sleeping aid for the elderly. It is an anti-histamine.

I would go with jfb's answer. They advise you not to drink alcohol with most meds. And here they are giving you alcohol with the antihistamine.

The huge amount of alcohol and the antihistamine. Together they knock you out.
