I was prescribed 25mg of Hydroxyzine for my anxiety and Insomnia but for some reason it seems to keep me awake longer. Is it ok to take 2 pills at once. I haven’t had a good nights sleep in about 3weeks or so.
I was prescribed 25mg of hydroxyzine to help me sleep due to anxiety and insomnia but 25mg does not?

Hi, Clara! Yes, it should be okay, but you should ALWAYS consult with your doctor before changing medication dosages.

My Dr. gave me 50 mg. So I would say yes, it's fine, although you might want to call your Dr. and ask.
