E20: Serotonin Antagonist and Reuptake Inhibitors (SARIs): Trazodone and Nefazodone

Merry Christmas. I have a special song for you today as we start the atypical antidepressants. We've finished with the typical antidepressants and now it's time to learn about the so-called atypical antidepressants, and going in chronological order, first up are the serotonin antagonist and reuptake inhibitors. We have two drugs in this class. First, the very commonly prescribed trazodone, and second, the rarely if ever prescribed nefazodone. Find out why that is and learn several things that you probably didn't know about them. My guess is there's more than you thought!
