    Production of Trazadone
    See answer above. That is how I arrived at this board. But I don't get it. This might not be the manufacturer? Perhaps we need to research Pharmaceutical World or trazodone + .com.
    Trazodone is the generic name for desyrel.
    I think the drug is so old that whoever manufactured desyrel doesn't anymore as I did enter desyrel + .com and came up with nothing using MSN search. Hmm......

    But do check out this cool link which I found here (!) too regarding all generic drugs:
