Trika contains alrazolam and it's a antianxiety medicine also uses for sleep. Depression treatment with this is highly unlikely. May be you were having anxiety that was gone with trika. Medicine prescribe other than trika depends on what are the symptoms you r facing. As depression can be your diagnosis bit we have to evaluate to be sure. Kindly tell us more about your symptoms.

Hello lybrate-user, I understand your situation and it would not be a good idea to increase the dose of the medication since this medication has a very high addiction potential.
