A member asked:
Is vistaril for anxiety helpful as sort of a rescue medication, when youre feeling anxious, or do you need to take it consistently to get a good effect?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Vistaril: Vistaril is fine if used for short durations. People who use it long term and suddenly stop usually get rebound of symptoms like headaches, insomnia. If you have rare episodes of anxiety then it will help. It does make you drowsy.
