A member asked:
Can promethazine be used to treat nerves or mental problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can be for both.: This drug was used as an antipsychotic, but not as often now as other drugs are used that likely have less side effects. It is also used as a sedative for those with insomnia, so in a way it is also used for nerves.
