- What is Trazodone ( Desyrel )?

- Trazodone is an Antidepressant. It is a weak inhibitor of serotonin re uptake. So therapeutic benefit appears to be related to its ability to block postsynaptic serotonin type 2 receptors. It is also sedating, probably because of its potent histamine H1-blocking activity.

- It is available as 50, 100 and 150 mg tablets.

- Trazodone is indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder. It has been used off-label for adjunct therapy in alcohol dependence, and off-label to treat anxiety, panic disorder, and insomnia.
