"I started getting extremely sick and nauseous (about 5 weeks ago) to the point that I had to go to the ER. IV Zofran didn’t do anything for me. They gave me IV fluid since I was so dehydrated, then I went home, still extremely nauseous. I remember my mom telling me that she used Vistaril for morning sickness while she was pregnant with my brothers (do male babies make people more nauseous?). I take Vistaril for my anxiety so I have it on my 24/7. I pulled over and took 100 mg (I was desperate. I normally took 50 mg). By the time I got home from the ER, I was able to breathe without feeling nauseous. Sadly, after 5 weeks of taking it, it’s stopped working as well, but it still works. Hopefully, it won’t fully stop working because I’m still nauseous if I don’t take it."

"I have had nausea and vomiting for 3 days straight. I even went to the ER. They gave me everything under the sun but nothing helped. I tried a 50mg Hydroxyzine Pamoate earlier and I am starting to feel human again! The vomiting and nausea are FINALLY settling down! This is a great med!"

"I suffered with 'nervous stomach' for years and did not know it. I tried everything over the counter, and then some. Vistaril has dramatically changed my life."

"I took Paxil for years for menopause symptoms. I tried to go off it several times but had relentless nausea and vomiting. Vistaril worked really well to end this and made it possible to get off Paxil."

"I suffer from anxiety and I've tried a lot of medicines that just destroyed my stomach. I also have a 'sensitive' stomach. Along with a phobia of vomiting. So add that up and stir in insomnia, makes for a very unhappy me. Vistaril has helped with the nervous stomach aches, the anxiety-induced vomiting, and my anxiety while helping my Lunesta be more effective. This medicine is awesome."
