Question

What is the medication trazadone hydrochloride?

Answer 1

Also, trazodone hydrochloride is chemically different from other anti-depressants. It is just as effective as other drugs such as tricyclic antidepressants in treating the symptons of depression. Symptoms can often be relieved as early as 2 weeks after starting trazodone but 4 or more weeks may be required to achieve maximum benefits

Answer 2

Known by the name brand Deseryl, its an out-dated anti-depressant which is still used by uninformed. old-school physicians as a "sleeping pill".

There are newer-generation sleep aids that work better, such as Ambien and Lunesta. Even the old stuff Restoril is better than trazodone.
