Trazodone Production Cost Reports

The report provides a detailed analysis essential for establishing a Trazodone manufacturing plant. It encompasses all critical aspects necessary for Trazodone production, including the cost of Trazodone production, Trazodone plant cost, Trazodone production costs, and the overall Trazodone manufacturing plant cost. Additionally, the study covers specific expenditures associated with setting up and operating a Trazodone production plant. These encompass manufacturing processes, raw material requirements, utility requirements, infrastructure needs, machinery and technology requirements, manpower requirements, packaging requirements, transportation requirements, and more.

Trazodone is a member of serotonin uptake inhibitors used to treat major depressive disorders (MDDs). It is used to treat anxiety and sleeplessness as well as supplementary therapy for alcohol dependence. Because of its action on several neurotransmitter receptors, it may also be used to treat symptoms of eating disorders, fibromyalgia, dementia, Alzheimer's disease, and schizophrenia. Because of its sedative properties, it helps cure sleeplessness as well as other symptoms associated with depression and low mood. Thus, it finds its application in the pharmaceutical and medical industries.

The procurement of Trazodone is influenced by its application in the pharmaceutical and medical industries as an antidepressant drug to treat symptoms of major depressive disorders. The need for Trazodone is increasing as cases of mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety are on the rise. It witnesses a significant demand from the aging population as they are more likely to be affected by depressive disorders. This medication does not increase the symptoms of anxiety or insomnia that are frequently connected to SSRI and SNRI therapy, which increases its demand.

Trazodone differs from other antidepressants that only target a limited spectrum of neurotransmitters in that it operates on several receptors, such as specific histamine, serotonin, and adrenergic receptors. Its wide range of applications to treat conditions other than depression also contributes to its rising demand. Overall, the industrial Trazodone procurement is influenced by its application in the pharmaceutical and medical industries as an antidepressant used to treat various depressive disorders, the increasing cases of MDDs, the aging population, wide range of applications, fewer side effects, along with cost-effectiveness, rising mental health awareness among individuals, logistics and distribution, technological advancements, and regulatory approvals.

Raw Material for Trazodone Production

According to the Trazodone manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Trazodone include Semicarbazide - 2-Chloropyridine.

Manufacturing Process of Trazodone

The extensive Trazodone production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Semicarbazide and 2-Chloropyridine: The manufacturing process of Trazodone involves a two-step process. The first step involves the condensation of semicarbazide and 2-chloropyridine with loss of water and ammonia to form 1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-alpha]pyridin3(2H)-one (intermediate). The intermediate on treatment with 1-(3-chlorophenyl)4,3-chlorophenyl)piperazine and sodamide produces Trazodone.

Trazodone is a white to off-white solid, having the molecular formula C19H22ClN5O and a molecular weight of 371.9 g/mol. Its boiling point is 528.5 °C, and melting point is 231-234 °C. It has a pKa value of 6.74. The log P value for it is 2.68. It has limited water solubility of 0.29 mg/mL. It dissolves to some extent in ethanol, methanol, and chloroform, while being nearly insoluble in common organic solvents. Trazodone is a serotonin uptake inhibitor, an H1 receptor antagonist, and an antidepressant medication used to treat major depressive disorders.
