User Reviews for hydroxyzine HCl intramuscular

Drug did not make me drowsy. Fell asleep 4 hours after taking it. Had panic attacks and some delirium which were a surprise. I thought they would be alleviated by this med.

I was told to take one pill when I went to bed. It was supposed to make me sleepy fairly quickly. Four hours after taking it I was wide awake. After falling asleep I had bad dreams/ hallucinations and shallow breathing until I got up at 6am.

I have scleroderma and the itching is about to kill me. My Dr. prescribed hydroxyzine, telling me it would stop my itching. It did no such thing. I lay in bed and clawed my arms and legs all night. It didn't even make me sleepy. I'm seeking ANY drug that will eliminate this horrid itching.

Have been experiencing panic attacks past 4 years due to PTSD. This drug has changed my life for the better. I take it once daily two hours before bed. A certain level of histamine is necessary for our bodies to function properly. That is the reason I do not take it twice daily. I sleep much better, digest food better and above all do not experience panic attacks anymore. It has only been two months but my fingers are crossed that this continues. I do experience a bit of physical nervousness between doses but not emotionally. Do not use any other stimulants with this including caffeine for the best benefit. Absolutely no alcohol. It is worth it.Read More Read Less

Makes me a little too sleepy to get through the day well. But takes care of the itch that also was causing me difficulty in getting a good nights sleep and getting through the day. I'll take the sleepy rather than the itchy any day.

I was a little reluctant to take this drug but it actually worked for vulvadymia. I had a burning sensation in my vulva area. After taking the drug for 3 weeks the symtoms dissapeared.

I had a horrible rash!! The itching was just awful! This really helped me. I would def use again!!!

It made me very drowsy but not for at least a couple of hours after taking it. Woke up with a very dry mouth. Itching still there as soon as I was warm.

Horrible! I have a sensitivity to to diphenhydramine and found out (too late) that it is in as similar class. I took one, and in about 30 minutes I was having one of the worst panic attacks i've ever had. This stuff is poison! Many anxiety sufferers have similar sensitivities (cold medicines), so I don't know why physicians prescribe it(maybe because they think there is nothing worse than an addictive medication. Well there is-this stuff! I had such an urge to go throw them in my doctor's face! Read More Read Less

I have skin problems on my hands and the itching is unbearable. Nothing worked til atarax 25mg. This medicine calms the itching down so I can sleep and helps me from scratching, which makes the condition worse.

I had taken it after an allergic reaction to Klonapin at the hospital. Afterwards, it felt like I couldn't breathe and not only that, it made my face itchy.

I get allergic reactions and my whole body is itching constantly, been taking 1 pill per day 20 mg, it can be used up to 4 times a day, but I only need it once a day and I am good to go.

I was on pheregan for a long period of time and no longer worked so dr changed me to this and it works quite well and i am not to sleepy

Was originally prescribed medicine for anxiety issues, but also had severe sleep issues at same time. This medicine worked great and helped my severe allergies as well.

18 year old male, taking for hives that have been with him now for 6 weeks. 50mg twice a day.
