Vistaril 25 mg Capsules (hydroxyzine pamoate) are a prescription antihistamine widely used for the short-term treatment of anxiety, tension, and allergy symptoms. Known for its calming and sedative effects, Vistaril works by reducing activity in the central nervous system, helping patients feel more relaxed while also relieving itching, hives, and skin reactions caused by allergies. Unlike benzodiazepines, Vistaril is not habit-forming, making it a preferred option for individuals seeking temporary anxiety relief without dependency risks. It is also prescribed as a sleep aid for those whose anxiety or allergies interfere with rest. Each capsule contains 25 mg of hydroxyzine pamoate in an easy-to-swallow form. Vistaril typically begins working within 15–30 minutes, providing rapid relief from anxious thoughts and allergic discomfort. Always use Vistaril under the supervision of a healthcare provider, as dosage may vary based on your condition and medical history.
