This seems to cause brain and heart birth defects in the children. If you go
to http://www.lawyersandsettlements.com/case/ace_inhibitors there is more
information and articles on this as well as what can be done about it. There
is also a free case evaluation provided for those who have been had issues
with this. I thought this might be of interest and hope that it may be of
some help.

Hello
Thank you for the interesting message. Methyldopa is generally the
agent recommended for pregnant ladies with hypertension but have seen
ACE inhibitors prescribed for pregnant ladies. |

at the age of seven had saved three thousand souls, the many farmers who
grew vegetables big as houses, so they rented them out. And we rejoiced at
learning about a talking rabbit who travels the Appalachian Trail
preaching
the gospel in small country churches, possums who read your fortune,

bears, the ghost of Elvis Presley attending Wednesday Night Prayer

Where I work, physicians often prescribe hydroxyzine with narcotic pain
relievers. The theory is that hydroxyzine makes the pain pills more
effective. |

<<If you trace the drug's history, you'd find that hydroxyzine was
originally indicated as a sedative (as in to sedate agitated patients).
I
dare anyone to take 50 mg of diphenhydramine (a normal single dose) or
50 mg
of hydroxyzine (a massive single dose) and see which one knocks you out
first. >>
You don't measure effectiveness of drugs dose by dose. the most
sedating antihistamine is dihpenhydramine, and its side affects are so
much greater than Hydroxyzine that you would never use an equivilant
dose of 50mg hydroxizine with diphenhydramine. |

Seriously? If you trace the drug's history, you'd find that hydroxyzine was
originally indicated as a sedative (as in to sedate agitated patients). I
dare anyone to take 50 mg of diphenhydramine (a normal single dose) or 50 mg
of hydroxyzine (a massive single dose) and see which one knocks you out

Hydroxyzine is potent antihistamine. The OP is correct: there is nothing
special about hydroxyzine.

There is an article about it in the online publication of
the British journal _Nature_. It seems that the drug binds
to a receptor on the surface of the infection-fighting
T cells, and causes them to go off at the slightest provocation.
For details, I suggest you read the article; I have made a
summary which omits the technical details.
