I haven't been doing well with sleep the past few months - it's been really disturbed and all over the place. I have a pdoc appointment in a month and I am going to ask her if it's okay to increase the hydroxyzine. I have been on the same dosage for almost 2 years, and maybe I think I need more. Can't hurt to ask! :

I have recently listened to a recording about hydroxyzine and other anticholinergic drugs. The psychiatrist who recorded himself talking examined the evidence about the link between these drugs and Alzheimer's (that stuff has been in the new lately) and found it very weak. If you are interested, I will see if I can find this recording in my search history.
