I totally agree, am no doc but being the son of a phrmacist, I can tell you that depending upon your body weight, stress (if you are roadtripping you are under stress) and sleep deprivation, effects of Avil can range from mild drowsiness to knocking you out.
I have been using a pill called "Alerid D" instead and thankfully works ok. Let it be known that any anti allergen or anti histamine releives symtoms of allergy or cold by suppressing your nervous system in one way or another. So taking any anti allergen or anti histamine is bound to cause drowsiness, some more some less and which in who varies.
Bottom line: If you have to pop in anything like that, your co pilot takes over, if alone, park get a nap, get coffee, then move... We have even resorted regular short sprints ( works up the adrenaline levels) and "eating" coffee powder and sugar (if no coffee) to fight sleep!!!
