Does atarax (hydroxyzine) really help anxiety and panic attacks?

For some: The drowsiness that is associated with Hydroxyzine can make you feel like you are slowing down, which some people find effective for anxiety or tension.

Atarax (hydroxyzine): Is antihistamine used for allergies & sometimes to calm agitation, not an anxiety medication per se.
