Mechanism of Action

Hyzit works by blocking the effects of histamine, a substance produced by the body during an allergic reaction. By inhibiting the action of histamine, it helps to relieve symptoms such as itching, redness, and hives. Additionally, Hyzit has sedative properties, which can help to reduce anxiety symptoms.

Side Effects

Common side effects may include drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, and blurred vision. These side effects are generally mild and may improve as your body adjusts to the medication. However, if any of these side effects persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider.

In rare cases, Hyzit may cause more serious side effects, such as irregular heartbeat, difficulty urinating, or seizures. If you experience any of these serious side effects, seek immediate medical attention.

Drug Interactions

Hyzit may interact with certain medications, potentially leading to adverse effects or reducing the effectiveness of either medication. Inform your healthcare provider about all the medications you are currently taking, including prescription drugs, over-the-counter medications, and herbal supplements. Examples of medications that may interact with Hyzit include:

• Central Nervous System (CNS) depressants: Combining Hyzit with other medications that have sedative effects, such as benzodiazepines or opioids, may increase the risk of excessive sedation or respiratory depression.
• Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs): Concurrent use of Hyzit with MAOIs may result in a potentially dangerous increase in blood pressure.
• Anticholinergic drugs: Combining Hyzit with other medications that have anticholinergic effects, such as certain antidepressants or antipsychotics, may increase the risk of side effects such as dry mouth, blurred vision, and constipation.

Consult your healthcare provider or pharmacist to ensure the safe and effective use of Hyzit in combination with other medications.
