Hydroxyzine Hcl

Syrup

This syrup contains Hydroxyzine Hydrochloride, a first-generation antihistamine with anxiolytic and sedative properties. It works by blocking H1 histamine receptors and suppressing activity in certain areas of the central nervous system, thereby reducing allergic symptoms and inducing a calming effect.
Hydroxyzine is effective in managing itching due to allergies, reducing anxiety, and providing sedation when required. The syrup formulation ensures ease of administration, especially in pediatric and geriatric patients.
