A member asked:

I was prescribed trazadone 50mg i have took xanax (alprazolam) previously to this. it was the little blue oval xanax (alprazolam). is there any comparison?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Both are sedating: Both Trazodone and Xanax (alprazolam) are sedating (cause sleepiness) but Trazodone is not as habit forming, so you are less likely to become dependent on it.
