Rinse with pure water for at least 15 minutes. Consult a doctor.
Rinse mouth with water. Do not induce vomiting. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Call a doctor or Poison Control Center immediately.

Emergency and supportive measures: Maintain an open airway and assist ventilation if necessary. Treat coma, seizures, hyperthermia, and atypical ventricular tachycardia if they occur. Monitor the patient for at least 6 to 8 hours after ingestion. Specific drugs and antidotes: There is no specific antidote for antihistamine overdose. As for anticholinergic poisoning, physostigmine has been used for treatment of severe delirium or tachycardia. However because antihistamine overdose carry a greater risk for seizures physostigmine is not recommended routinely. Sodium bicarbonate may be useful for myocardial depression . Decontamination: Administer activated charcoal orally if conditions are appropriate. Gastric lavage is not necessary after small to moderate ingestions if activated charcoal can be given promptly. Because of slowed gastrointestinal motility, gut decontamination procedures may be helpful even in late-presenting patients. Enhanced elimination: Hemodialysis, hemoperfusion, peritoneal dialysis, and repeat dose activated charcoal are not effective in removing antihistamines. Antihistamines
Suitable extinguishing media Use water spray, alcohol-resistant foam, dry chemical or carbon dioxide. Advise for firefighters: Wear self contained breathing apparatus for fire fighting if necessary. Diphenhydramine hydrochloride

Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing mist, gas or vapours.Avoid contacting with skin and eye. Use personal protective equipment.Wear chemical impermeable gloves. Ensure adequate ventilation.Remove all sources of ignition. Evacuate personnel to safe areas.Keep people away from and upwind of spill/leak.
Prevent further spillage or leakage if it is safe to do so. Do not let the chemical enter drains. Discharge into the environment must be avoided.
Personal precautions: Use personal protective equipment. Avoid dust formation. Avoid breathing vapors, mist or gas. Ensure adequate ventilation. Avoid breathing dust. Environmental precautions: Do not let product enter drains. Methods and materials for containment and cleaning up: Pick up and arrange disposal without creating dust. Sweep up and shovel. Keep in suitable, closed containers for disposal. Diphenhydramine hydrochloride
Handling in a well ventilated place. Wear suitable protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Avoid formation of dust and aerosols. Use non-sparking tools. Prevent fire caused by electrostatic discharge steam.
Keep container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Diphenhydramine hydrochloride

Ensure adequate ventilation. Handle in accordance with good industrial hygiene and safety practice. Set up emergency exits and the risk-elimination area.
Wear tightly fitting safety goggles with side-shields conforming to EN 166(EU) or NIOSH (US).
Wear fire/flame resistant and impervious clothing. Handle with gloves. Gloves must be inspected prior to use. Wash and dry hands. The selected protective gloves have to satisfy the specifications of EU Directive 89/686/EEC and the standard EN 374 derived from it.
If the exposure limits are exceeded, irritation or other symptoms are experienced, use a full-face respirator.

The pKa of diphenhydramine is 8.98(1), indicating that diphenhydramine will exist almost entirely in the cation form at pH values of 5 to 9 and, therefore, bioconcentration in fish is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC).
The Koc of diphenhydramine is estimated as 380(SRC), using a log Kow of 3.27(1) and a regression-derived equation(2). According to a classification scheme(3), this estimated Koc value suggests that diphenhydramine is expected to have moderate mobility in soil. Using a soil column study, diphenhydramine, present at 0.112 ug/L in added treated effluent, was detected at 0.081 ug/L in the outflow 23 days later(4). The pKa of diphenhydramine is 8.98(5), indicating that this compound will exist partially in the cation form in the environment and cations generally adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(6).

The material can be disposed of by removal to a licensed chemical destruction plant or by controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing. Do not contaminate water, foodstuffs, feed or seed by storage or disposal. Do not discharge to sewer systems.
Containers can be triply rinsed (or equivalent) and offered for recycling or reconditioning. Alternatively, the packaging can be punctured to make it unusable for other purposes and then be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. Controlled incineration with flue gas scrubbing is possible for combustible packaging materials.
