Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Atarax 10 Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Composition of Atarax 10 Tablet

Atarax 10 Tablet contains Hydroxyzine (10mg). It belongs to the First-generation H1 antihistamine (piperazine derivative) class of medicines.

Benefits of Atarax 10 Tablet

In Allergic rhinitis
Atarax blocks the histamine your body releases to an allergen, relieving the sneezing, runny or blocked nose and itchy, watery eyes that spoil your day.
In Hives and skin allergy
Atarax calms the itching and brings down the raised, red weals of hives, so the skin settles and you can sleep.
In Itching
Atarax relieves itching from an allergic reaction, an insect bite or a skin condition, which also stops the scratching that damages skin and keeps it inflamed.
In Allergic asthma
Atarax reduces the allergic inflammation in the airways that triggers wheezing and tightness, so attacks are fewer and milder when it is taken alongside your inhaler.

How Atarax 10 Tablet works

Hydroxyzine is a first-generation antihistamine (H1 blocker) with sedative and anxiolytic properties. It reduces the effects of histamine to relieve itching/allergy symptoms and also depresses activity in certain areas of the central nervous system to reduce anxiety and induce calmness.
