Patient summary

Developed to target depressive disorders, utilised to support patients to alleviate symptoms of low mood and anxiety through regulated serotonin modulation.

Mechanism of action

Trazodone is a serotonin antagonist and reuptake inhibitor. It inhibits the reuptake of serotonin presynaptically while also antagonising 5-HT2A receptors. This dual-action approach helps to improve mood and sleep patterns.

Trazodone is an antidepressant that acts on serotonin in a different way from SSRIs. It is used for major depressive disorder, including depression with anxiety, and doctors often prescribe low doses for sleep problems. It comes as 25, 50 and 100 mg tablets; the original brands are Desyrel and Molipaxin.

Like other antidepressants, trazodone may increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and actions, so mood changes need watching. It may also make you drowsy and affect your judgement, thinking and movements: avoid driving until you know how it affects you (MedlinePlus).

Buying Trazodone online

Generic trazodone from India is inexpensive. Your doctor should decide the dose, especially for sleep.
