Should Increased Dosage Of Zoloft Or Hydroxyzine Be Taken For Persistent Depression?
I am taking hydroxyzine 25mg 4 times daily. I started it about 3 weeks ago and now I feel it isn t working. The doctor put me on this when I went off of Cymbalta and started Zoloft. I have been taking 100mg of Zoloft for a month now and an still depressed. Do I need to get the dosage for the Zoloft raised or the hydroxyzine?

Hello,
Hydroxyzine is an antihistamine but can be used for anxiety. If it is not working you can use any other antidepressants.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
