No, trazodone is not a benzodiazepine. It belongs to the class of antidepressant meds called serotonin re-uptake inhibitors. It causes the serotonin that you do have to remain in your body longer thus adding to the total amount still hanging around in your body. The guess is that increased serotonin will decrease depression.
Although it is not a benzo, for some people it has been a tough one to discontinue.
Medications such as Trazodone and Daypro can cause false positive results for benzodiazepines. There are many benzodiazepines. Some examples are Xanax, Klonopin, Valium, and Librium to name a few. There are many more.
My friend is a diagnosed alcholic, when she relapsed she was sent to an inpatient program. When she was discharged from that program she was prescribed Trazodone for sleep, and Hydroxizine for anxiety. She tested positive for benzodiazepines, and may now be facing a stay in a halfway house, due to this results. I believe that if they are not in the same family, that one or both of her prescribed meds could produce a false positive. Am I correct?
