Trazodone is a prescription antidepressant medicine primarily used for the treatment of major depressive disorder. It belongs to the serotonin antagonist and reuptake inhibitor (SARI) class of medicines and works by affecting serotonin activity in the brain, which plays an important role in mood regulation. Depending on the patient's condition and local prescribing guidelines, healthcare professionals may also prescribe Trazodone for selected off-label uses. The appropriate dosage, formulation, and duration of treatment must be determined by a qualified medical practitioner.
कैसे उपयोग करें

Take at the Recommended Time: Follow your prescribed schedule consistently. Depending on the formulation and prescription, your doctor may recommend taking the medicine in the evening because it can cause drowsiness.
