RESUMEN
La trazodona es un antidepresivo atípico de segunda generación. Ejerce acciones inhibidoras selectivas sobre el transporte de serotonina (5-HT), pero con menor potencia que los antidepresivos selectivos de la recaptura de 5-HT. El efecto farmacológico más potente es su acción antagonista sobre los receptores 5-HT
2A y 5-HT
2C; bloqueando los receptores α
1 - α
2 adrenérgicos y receptores histaminérgicos tipo H1. Resulta eficaz para el tratamiento de depresión, insomnio y algunos trastornos de ansiedad, en monoterapia o en combinación con otros fármacos. También es utilizada como terapia coadyuvante en algunos casos de manía, síndrome de Tourette, enfermedad de Alzheimer y esquizofrenia, aunque su eficacia en estos desórdenes es debatida. Por sus acciones bloqueadoras a los α-adrenorreceptores, se ha utilizado para tratar la disfunción eréctil, pero su uso es controversial por algunos reportes de priapismo. La trazodona tiene interacciones farmacológicas con otros antidepresivos, algunos neurolépticos, antimicóticos, antirretrovirales y antibióticos, entre otros. El propósito de esta revisión es describir la farmacología de la trazodona, usos clínicos y efectos secun-darios.
