Hello, Cat! How are you?

No, Aterax is actually the name brand for Hydroxyzine, as opposed to the generic being just called Hydroxyzine Pamoate.

The FDA classifies this medication as being an antihistamine that is commonly used to treat allergic reactions and for its sedative like effects. Its typical side effects may possibly include drowsiness, dry mouth and somnolence.

Is there anything else I can help with?
