Hi,
Hydroxyzine is a drug belonging to the antihistamine group, which is used mostly for itching, anxiety, and nausea. For anxiety, it can be taken in a dose of 50-100 mg daily divided in four times a day. However, any medication should only be started after consultation with your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
