- When hydroxyzine is combined with central nervous system depressants like narcotics, non-narcotic analgesics, and barbiturates, its potentiating effect must be taken into account. As a result, when central nervous system depressants are given at the same time as hydroxyzine, the dosage of the central nervous system depressive should be lowered.
- Because drowsiness is a risk with this medication, patients should be told about it and advised against driving or operating risky machinery while taking it. Patients should also be warned against taking other CNS depressants at the same time, and that the effects of alcohol may be amplified.
