Can Vistaril Be Taken Instead Of Xanax While Having AFib?
yes, I am presently on Xanax, which my Dr. will no longer write prescript for me. She is taking away and replacing with Vistrial. I am in afib and have to be schocked back into rythmn. Is this a smart thing to do? I am very nervous and upset at this point. What can I do? I think I need to keep taking my meds since i am very anxious.

Hello,
Xanax is a habit forming drug. Replacing it with Hydroxyzine is a good choice by your attending doctor.
Hope I have answered your query.
Take care
