Take care,

Yes, he could be using it to get high.It can cause hallucinations and mild euphoria. It would probably be best if you simply ask him about it. Good luck.

It also causes profound drowsiness in some people. It can help you to sleep for hours. They give it for itching and hives a lot. Kids will abuse almost any drug that can cause a change in consciousness. You definitely need to talk to him and see why he was wanted to take it and let him know that it is dangerous to take pills other people may give you especially if you dont know what they are. Some pills can be deadly on the first dose (not this one, but high doses of some pain meds like OxyContin can kill in one pill)

Mandy888 don't be such a tight a** parent and maybe ur teenage child won't hide enything from you

many kids in my school will offer me money for my atarax (hydroxizine) because it offers good sedative effects and many kids will try to abuse it so i would just ask him about it. I have a preprescription for it for stress and and anxiety. the pill is great when used for the right medical reasons

It won't really do anything but if you mix that pill with an oxy and it boosts your high

Can u get high off of hydroxyzine

I believe so. When I was on 10 milligrams a night, it had no such effect. However, when they increased it to 25 and then again increased to 50, it felt like I smoked a joint. I'm answering this question in a personal perspective, so parents be wary.

If anything I'd rather have my son smoking marijuana or using it different way for it has no internal or external effect. Hydroxyzine is use for itching, sores, wounds, and will make you drowsy. If taken 1 25 mg (blue/green capsule) from 15-20 years of age it will just make you drowsy. If you exceed with 2 or more there will be an effect on your son but taking too much can cause extremely blurred vision, rarely will it cause you to get high in a good way. It gets you high in wrong ways which is very very sleepy. You should speak to him immediately before taking too much or it will lead to coma or seizures from blurred vision. I study all types of medicines pills to powder to liquids to injections. Best wishes to you and stay strong mighty mother!

This is like taking benadryl..anything u take in excess will give u a "weird" feeling! But really this med just barely takes the edge off of anxiety... maybe it works wonders for people... everyone is different... it just relaxes me a lil bit!

Yes for sure I use it from time to time when I want to nod out and relax

Before assuming your son is on drugs for recreational use, consider the fact that he could have been confidently prescribed them and maybe do some research on it or talk to him about it. If you expect him to trust you and talk to you about it, then you need to trust him and not go through his things. I was prescribed hydroxyzine at 19 for panic attacks and depression. I asked the doctor not to tell my mother because I didn't want her to worry about me. It's also used to help with insomnia, allergies, stress, anxiety, depression, etc...
