Its use in food allergies is unclear. Allergies are common. In the developed world, about 20% of people are affected by allergic rhinitis, about 6% of people have at least one food allergy, and about 20% have atopic dermatitis at some point in time. Depending on the country about 1â18% of people have asthma.
Best Answer: Atarax will not cause a false positive on a urine test. Atarax (hydroxyzine HCl) is unrelated chemically to the phenothiazines, reserpine, meprobamate, or the benzodiazepines. It is classed as a piperazine antihistamine. Still, you need to inform the tester about all medications you are taking.
Messages: 562. Just wanted to get some input on what people think of hydroxyzine being used as an anxiolytic. This is not a thread to compare the recreational uses of benzos vs. hydroxyzine but rather in the treatment of acute anxiety. SWIM was injected with hydroxyzine once I.M. in the emergency room for an acute panic attack when he was very young and didn't even know what a panic attack was.
