Inactive ingredients: anhydrous lactose, colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, FD&C Blue No. 2 Aluminum lake (not contained in the 25 mg or 50 mg pink
tablets), hypromellose, magnesium stearate, polyethylene glycol, and titanium dioxide. The 25 mg includes hydroxypropyl cellulose; and the 50 mg includes polysorbate 80. The lavender 10 mg includes D&C Red No. 27 Aluminum lake; FD&C Red No. 40 Aluminum lake; FD&C Yellow No. 6 Aluminum lake; polydextrose and triacetin. The 25 mg and 50 mg include D&C Red No. 7 Calcium lake.

HydrOXYzine hydrochloride is unrelated chemically to the phenothiazines, reserpine, meprobamate, or the benzodiazepines. HydrOXYzine is not a cortical depressant, but its action may be due to a suppression of activity in certain key regions of the subcortical area of the central nervous system. Primary skeletal muscle relaxation has been demonstrated experimentally. Bronchodilator activity, and antihistaminic and analgesic effects have been demonstrated experimentally and confirmed clinically. An antiemetic effect, both by the apomorphine test and the veriloid test, has been demonstrated. Pharmacological and clinical studies indicate that hydrOXYzine in therapeutic dosage does not increase gastric secretion or acidity and in most cases has mild antisecretory activity. HydrOXYzine is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and hydrOXYzine hydrochloride clinical effects are usually noted within 15 to 30 minutes after oral administration.

HydrOXYzine, when administered to the pregnant mouse, rat, and rabbit, induced fetal abnormalities in the rat and mouse at doses substantially above the human therapeutic range. Clinical data in human beings are inadequate to establish safety in early pregnancy. Until such
data are available, hydrOXYzine is contraindicated in early pregnancy. HydrOXYzine is contraindicated for patients who have shown a previous hypersensitivity to it.

THE POTENTIATING ACTION OF HYDROXYZINE MUST BE CONSIDERED WHEN THE DRUG IS USED IN CONJUNCTION WITH CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM DEPRESSANTS SUCH AS NARCOTICS, NON-NARCOTIC ANALGESICS AND BARBITURATES. Therefore when central nervous system depressants are administered concomitantly with hydrOXYzine their dosage should be reduced. Since drowsiness may occur with use of this drug, patients should be warned of this possibility and cautioned against driving a car or operating dangerous machinery while taking hydrOXYzine. Patients should be advised against the simultaneous use of other CNS depressant
drugs, and cautioned that the effect of alcohol may be increased.<br/>Geriatric Use: A determination has not been made whether controlled clinical studies of hydrOXYzine included sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to define a difference in response from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy. The extent of renal excretion of hydrOXYzine has not been determined. Because elderly patients are more likely to have decreased renal function, care should be
taken in dose selections. Sedating drugs may cause confusion and over sedation in the elderly; elderly patients generally should be started on low doses of hydrOXYzine and observed closely.

| dailymed-instance:overdosag... |
The most common manifestation of hydrOXYzine overdosage is hypersedation. As in the management of overdosage with any drug, it should be borne in mind that multiple agents may have been taken. If vomiting has not occurred spontaneously, it should be induced. Immediate gastric lavage is also recommended. General supportive care, including frequent monitoring of the vital signs and close observation of the patient, is indicated. Hypotension, though unlikely, may be controlled with intravenous fluids and levarterenol, or metaraminol. Do not use epinephrine as hydrOXYzine counteracts its pressor action. There is no specific antidote. It is doubtful that hemodialysis would be of any value in the treatment of overdosage with hydrOXYzine. However, if other agents such as barbiturates have been ingested concomitantly, hemodialysis may be indicated. There is no practical
method to quantitate hydrOXYzine in body fluids or tissue after its ingestion or administration.

Side effects reported with the administration of hydrOXYzine hydrochloride are usually mild and transitory in nature. Anticholinergic: Dry mouth. Central Nervous System: Drowsiness is usually transitory and may disappear in a few days of continued therapy or upon reduction of the dose. Involuntary motor activity including rare instances of tremor and convulsions have been reported, usually with doses considerably higher than those recommended. Clinically significant respiratory depression has not been reported at recommended doses.

Nursing Mothers: It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Since many drugs are so excreted, hydrOXYyzine should not be given to nursing mothers.
