[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 298946, member: 1963"] Back years ago, before there were safer medications to use pre-surgically, Vistaril was prescribed to both to forestall reactions to anesthesia and and (combined with valium) as a pre-op sedative. Vistaril is nothing more than a typical antihistamine and is quite similar to Benadryl in effect. It's on-label use these days is to treat hives, itching, and allergic rashes, which is works well for in many people. It is NOT a psychiatric drug, and has no effect on raging beyond general sedation. Like Benadryl, it can exacerbate raging and general irritability in some people. I'd be very skeptical. [/QUOTE]
