We continue protecting our family from allergy

Hallo! It’s me again, Dr Mellissa D. Miller. Today I’ll give some available information concerning one more allergy medicine called Atarax. Today you’ll get to know its general characteristics and dosage.
Atarax has some differences from other allergy medicine. Although Atarax’s an antihistamine and it treats symptoms of allergy, it can also help you with and treat tension or anxiety. So, if you transmit any diseases, you can recovery your health with Atarax.
If you decide to take Atarax, it’s very important to consult with your doctor, pharmacist or health care provider for choosing the right dose for you, for discussing contra-indication and side effects. If you don’t do it, your health’ll be in dangerous.
The main rule of taking Atarax’s that this medicine is taken for 4 month. So, if you need to continue taking Atarax, your doctor’ll have to write you one more prescription.
According to function of Atarax, its dosage can be different:
1. Atarax as a allergy medicine
-Children aged under 6: daily dose’s 50 ml, which can be divided into smaller part of dose
-Children aged over 6: daily dose’s 50-100 ml, which can be divided into smaller part of dose
-Adults: 25 ml three or four times a day
2. Atarax as a tension or anxiety medicine
-Children aged under 6: daily dose’s 50 ml, which can be divided into smaller part of dose
-Children aged over 6: daily dose’s 50-100 ml, which can be divided into smaller part of dose
-Adults: 50-100 ml four times a day
3. Atarax as a help with anesthesia:
- Children: 0.6 ml per 2.2 pounds of body weight
-Adults: 50-100 ml
If you experience overdose you should ask for emergency.
If you miss a dose, you should just miss it and continue taking Atarax according to schedule. Just don’t take it twice a day.
Keep Atarax away from children!
For the next time I’ll inform you about its side effects and contra-indication. Good luck!
