tranquilizer
A tranquilizer is a type of drug used to reduce anxiety, fear, tension, agitation, and related states of mental disturbance. It works by slowing down the central nervous system and has sedative and calming effects. Tranquilizers are often used in medicine to treat severe stress and mental health conditions such as anxiety disorders, panic disorders, and sleep disorders. They must be used under the supervision of a physician due to potential side effects, dependency, and withdrawal issues.
