Yes..My Dr. Gave it to me for the sore in my mouth and tongue
Antacid/Diphen/Lido is an abbreviation for Antacid / Diphenhydramine / Lidocaine.
Numbness is an effect of the Lidocaine which is a local anesthetic.
Any dizziness and light headedness are possible side effects of Diphenhydramine. [1] It is an antihistamine, intended to bring down swelling. If the side effects do not go away or get worse, let your doctor know.

I am taking the Antacid / Diphenhydramine / Lidocaine medication every four hours. I am feeling a little dizzy, numbness and light headed.
Yes, the Lido in it is Lidocaine, it is a topical anesthetic. The FDA does warn that it may cause numbness, as well as nausea, dizziness, and drowsiness.
Are you on any other medications?
