Trazodone is used primarily off-label for what condition?

  1. Depression

  2. Sleep disorders

  3. Chronic pain

  4. Anxiety

The correct answer is: Sleep disorders

Trazodone is primarily used off-label for the treatment of sleep disorders. Although it is FDA-approved for the treatment of major depressive disorder, trazodone's sedating properties make it a popular choice for off-label use in treating insomnia and other sleep disturbances. While trazodone may also be used off-label for conditions such as anxiety and chronic pain, its primary off-label use is for sleep disorders.
