A member asked:
Experienced depression from xyzal (levocetirizine). would atarax have a similar effect, or are they different enough that i may have better outcome?

Possibly: Those medications are both antihistamines, but they work in slightly different ways. The only way to know is to try it. Talk to your doctor about your concerns. Good luck.
