"My son, who is 33, was given Vistaril after going to the emergency room with an autoimmune rash that was flaring up. He was told to take one to two 25 mg capsules every 6 hours as needed for itching. He began acting very strange. I worked, so I was being told of his behavior by his brother and stepdad. I told him to stop taking it, then I took the pills away and flushed them. I counted them, and in the 6 days he had them, he only took 5 pills. This is what Vistaril did for him: it caused visual and auditory hallucinations, severe paranoid anxiety, extreme dry mouth, tremors, stuttering, and many other things. He thought everyone was trying to kill him, everyone he looked at had rivers of tears running down their face. It is killing me hearing all of it. He’s been very traumatized. Hopefully, he will be able to feel better soon."

"Only med that knocks out itching from allergies from outdoors, too, medication reactions for me. About all it does do, other than occasionally relieve nausea."
