Which of the following is an example of a minor tranquilizer?

Benzodiazepines, such as Xanax, are classified as minor tranquilizers due to their ability to reduce anxiety and promote relaxation without causing significant sedation. This classification serves to differentiate them from major tranquilizers, which are often used to treat severe psychotic disorders. Minor tranquilizers are commonly prescribed for anxiety disorders, panic attacks, and sometimes for muscle spasm relief or insomnia.

Prozac, while effective for anxiety and depression, is classified as a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), and lithium is primarily utilized for mood stabilization in bipolar disorder. Adderall is a stimulant commonly used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and does not fall under the tranquilizer category.
