Is hydroxyzyne a tranquilizer better than trazodone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hydroxyzine : Hydroxyzine is an antihistamine like benadryl (diphenhydramine). It can sedate a bit, but is not potent like trazodone. Trazodone is a major antidepressant with sedating properties. It is more potent and is designed for these actions.
