Seroquel (quetiapine) is classified as an atypical antipsychotic (or an atypical neuroleptic). Similar drugs include Risperdal (risperidone), Zyprexa (olanzapine), Geodon (ziprasidone), and Abilify (aripiprazole).
Seroquel Seroquel is FDA approved for (a) schizophrenia, (b) Bipolar disorder, and it was recently approved for (c) adjunctive treatment of major depressive disorder (when added to an antidepressant).
Xanax (alprazolam) is classified as a benzodiazepine, a large group of drugs which include Ativan (lorazepam), Valium (diazepam), Rivotril/Klonopin (clonazepam), and Serax (oxazepam).

Valium reacts slower, doesn't hit as hard, but lasts longer 20-100 hours. xanax reacts faster, hits harder, but lasts 6-12 hours.... .5mg of xanax is comparable to 10mg of Valium xanax imo is better for anxiety, sleep Valium more so for relaxation and muscle relaxation, especially after a hard workout. Valium stays in your system longer, xanax does not.

Does xanax and clorazepate show up the same on a drug test?
Most likely not. They are different 'classes' of drugs.Although they are both sedatives, Xanax is a drug of the Benzodiazepine class (which includes Valium, Klonopin, Ativan and Xanax), and Tramadol is a synthetic opioid (a class of drugs including heroin, Percocet, Vicodin, OxyContin, and many derivatives like Tramadol).In most cases, a drug test does not indicate what substance was used; it will only tell what class of drugs were used. More specific (and expensive) testing must be done to indicate the exact substance that was used - and only if such testing is available.So, Tramadol is likely to appear as an opioid (or opiate) in a drug test, if at all.
