Yesterday at work I broke into a cold sweat, got dizzy, nauseous, really dry mouth and throat, and felt like I was going to pass out. They said I was white as a sheet. They called the paramedics which checked my blood sugar...it was 123. Then my blood pressure 195/94. They gave me a pill to chew then we went to the er. EKG was normal, blood work was normal, the doctor gave me an anxiety pill which is called Hydroxyzine. It completely knocked me out last night. Has anyone taken this? How did it do for your anxiety? Thanks for the info.

It's an old antihistamine with good anti-anxiety effects. Safer than benzos with respect to dependance. It should help. Alankay
