What is Atarax Oral Syrup (Hydroxyzine) prescribed for?

Allergies are basically what happen when your immune system reacts to something that is usually quite harmless. Many of these triggers include pollen, mold, animal dander, certain foods, and various things that can irritate your skin. Many of the symptoms are itchy eyes and skin, nasal congestion, wheezing, and a rash.

Atarax is a medication used to treat itching that is caused by allergies. It is a type of medication known as an antihistamine, its purpose is to reduce or block histamines, and thus stopping allergy symptoms. The active ingredient within Atarax is known as Hydroxyzine, and is known at times to be used for short term treatments for anxiety to help you feel more relaxed so that you may sleep before and after surgery.
