A member asked:
Due to work overload my dr. has recommended that i take 20 mg tablets of hydroxyzine as needed for anxiety . is this considered a high dosage bid?

Not at all: In fact this is a rather low dose, but sometimes it is better to start of with low doses and titrate up to make sure you tolerate the medication. Remember this medication can be sedating.
