Default Is 150 MG of Atarax too much?

I suffer from panic disorder. I ran out of my normal medication. Lexapro 10 mg per day, and Xanax ( only taken as needed) .5 per day.



I ended up at a city hospital and they put me on 150 mg of Atarax per day!! I am 125 pounds. No way could I take this much.



I got sick after the first dosage of 50! They want me to take three of these a day???



Is this normal?

Hydroxyzine (Atarax) has the tendency to bring out or amplify the withdrawal/grogginess of other drugs that were used recently, especially if you have stopped use of them.



150mg is a lot but it's 'safe'.



You likely feel sick because you ran out of your Xanax and the Atarax is bringing out the Xanax withdrawal.
