Antihistamines are usually what most people think of for treating their symptoms of sneezing and runny nose or from hives and allergic skin reactions. Histamine is a part of your body’s defence mechanism that is signaled when a threat is detected.
When taken as directed, Atarax Oral Syrup or generic Hydroxyzine Hydrochloride works by blocking certain molecules found in cell membranes, called receptors. This results in preventing the activation of the H1 receptors into producing histamine as an immune response.
