Hi and thanks so much for your question. In addition to the info from our expert, I thought you might want to review our facts on trazodone:
This medication is used to treat depression. Trazodone works by helping to restore the balance of a certain natural chemical (serotonin) in the brain.
Hope this helps and all the best, sue (moderator)
Hi Jefret6,
I've never had a client prescribed Trazodone for the purpose of treating panic attacks, however, according to this information, it can be used for "relief from anxiety disorders (e.g. sleeplessness, tension)." I have had a number of clients who were prescribed Trazodone for sleep problems.
Regards,
Dr. Jennifer Fee
