  • A 14-year-old Ava in Arkansas was medevaced to Arkansas Children’s Hospital after taking about 70 Benadryl tablets.
  • Her father says the incident highlights a broader social media trend of Benadryl challenges among minors.
  • Doctors say more than one-third of child overdoses involve over‑the‑counter medications.
  • Ava says she wasn’t participating in a social media challenge but was contemplating self-harm at the time.
  • The family is pursuing a state law to limit bulk OTC purchases by minors and is seeking retailer and legislative responses.
  • Dollar General reportedly did not check Ava’s ID during purchase of a 365-tablet bottle.
  • Advocates argue for state-level policies, not just retailer rules, to curb minors’ access to OTC medications.
  • The case has drawn attention to retailer policies and potential changes to prevent minors from buying large OTC quantities.
  • Ava was released from the hospital and is reported to be recovering, according to the report.
