Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Headaches While On Hydroxyzine
Hey I ve been taking hydroxyzine 10mg for a week in a half now and I would take 1 pill around 6pm and another one around 5am. However, I would feel dizzy and headaches about 5 to 6 hours later after I would take the pill and I were trying to find out why is that and can I take something for my headaches or is just the pills wearing off?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Hydroxyzine is an antihistamine and it does cause headache and dizziness as a side-effect. You have not mentioned the reason for which you are taking this drug. I would advise you to discuss this with your general physician and get it substituted by a different drug or stop it if not required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
