Hydroxyzine Pamoate is used primarily as an antihistamine for the treatment of itches and irritations, an antiemetic for the reduction of nausea, as a weak analgesic by itself and as an opioid potentiator, and as an anxiolytic for the treatment of anxiety.

Several adverse reactions have been noted in manufacturer guidelines, such as deep sleep, incoordination and dizziness have been reported in children and adults, as well as others such as hypotension, tinnitus and headaches.

Dear Kim,
I have been taking both the 25 and 50 milligram tablets for about 3 years now for generalized anxiety disorder.The only side effects i have noted are cotton mouth and dizziness plus they will make you go to sleep,they are also used for some skin rashes or itching and post surgery instances for sleep.Dont drive on them for at least 8 hours because they will impair reflexes slightly.

Hey brother, I feel the pain. I'm not on HP until this evening but here's a couple things you might try.

1. No caffeine or stimulants after 3 PM. Most say noon but that's bulls***, they've probably never had a desk job or spent any time in the military.

2. Get in a good rhythm. Set an alarm on your phone that gently reminds you it's about bed time.

3. When your alarm goes off, IMMEDIATELY swing your legs to the floor. Congrats, you've done the hard part.

4. There are "hot spots" as I had them described them to me, and they allegedly are times where you are at the lowest form of sleep so if you wake up during one of these "faults", you'll wake up far less groggy.

Hope any of this helped. I'm pulling for ya.

No medication is to be kept for more than a year. It will have lost its potency. Some medications can actually become harmful. So please do yourself a favor throw it out and ask your doctor for a new prescription.

1st. Tried it for extreme allergies, ( went down the toilet) couldn't function the next day ( felt like I was trapped in general anesthesia) and could not function. Fast forward re-tried lately for hives & itching , now it hardly works and takes hours before it kicks in. Just stick with cheap benadryl.????
