 tranquilizer[1] refers to a drug which is designed for the treatment of anxiety, fear, tension, agitation, and disturbances of the mind,[2] specifically to reduce states of anxietyand tension.[3]

Tranquilizer, as a term, was brought into existence by F.F. Yonkman (1953),[4][5] from the conclusions of investigative studies using the drug Reserpine, showed the drug had a calming effect on all animals it was administered to. Reserpine, is a Centrally Acting Rauwolfia Alkaloid.[6] The word directly refers to the state of tranquility in a person and other animals.[7]

The term is thought to belong to a lexicon of words thought popular or so-called common, and so is therefore accordingly thought as not generally in use within the field of medicine, specifically in reference to the group of medications known as anti-psychotic or neuroleptics.[8]
