Cosby later said he gave Constand three half-pills of Benadryl, although Troiani in the documents voices doubt that was the drug involved.
They kind of buried this in the article, and as the latter half of the sentence says, the woman's lawyer doubts that Cosby is being honest about the drug involved, but I've never heard of anyone taking Benadryl recreationally. On the other hand, if you wanted to put someone to sleep or lower their resistance, a pill and a half of Benadryl would sure do the trick. This seems like pretty damning testimony regardless of whether some of Cosby's accusers consented to take Ludes from him.
Recreational benadryl is a thing. Getting as far as typing "recreational diph" went ahead and autofilled with "enhydramine dose" in google, same deal for trying recreational benadryl. Anything psychoactive is going to find someone willing to use it. Honestly, benadryl's not infinitely far off from quaaludes, in that they're both powerful sedatives, so if you can stay awake through the hypnotic effect, you're going to have odd experiences.

Well I'll be goddamned. The things people get high on these days...and also apparently for the last couple of decades.
