Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. No, hydroxyzine or buspirone does not lead to negative HPT. Though there are some medicines which can give you false positive results, medicines generally do not lead to false negative results. Also HPT are 97% accurate, 3% may be missed. You can repeat the test if you want.
I hope this was helpful do let me know if you have any more questions.
Regards,
Dr. Akash Kumar
