Edit. Curiousity got the better of me so I looked it up. Here is what I found from your description:
Trazodone tablets
What are trazodone tablets?
TRAZODONE (Desyrel(R)) is an antidepressant, a medicine that helps to lift mental depression. It can help patients whose depression has not responded to other medications, or who have experienced limiting side effects with other antidepressants. Trazodone may also be used to treat other conditions such as problems sleeping, anxiety, and panic attacks. Generic trazodone tablets are available.
What should my health care professional know before I take trazodone?
They need to know if you have any of these conditions:
•attempted or thinking about suicide
•bipolar disorder
•heart disease, or previous heart attack
•irregular heart beat
•kidney disease
•liver disease
•mania
•an unusual or allergic reaction to trazodone, other medicines, foods, dyes or preservatives
•pregnant or trying to get pregnant
•breast-feeding
How should I take this medicine?
Take trazodone tablets by mouth. Follow the directions on the prescription label. Swallow the tablets with a drink of water. Take trazodone shortly after a meal or a light snack. Take your doses at regular intervals. Do not take your medicine more often than directed. Do not stop taking the tablets except on your prescriber's advice.
Contact your pediatrician or health care professional regarding the use of this medicine in children. Special care may be needed.
What if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you can. If it is less than four hours to your next dose, take only that dose and skip the missed dose. Do not take double or extra doses.
What should I watch for while taking trazodone?
Visit your prescriber or health care professional for regular checks on your progress. You may have to take trazodone for two weeks or more before you feel better. If you have been taking trazodone for some time, do not suddenly stop taking it. Your prescriber or health care professional may want you to gradually reduce the dose; ask for advice.
You may get drowsy, dizzy or have blurred vision. Do not drive, use machinery, or do anything that needs mental alertness until you know how trazodone affects you. Do not stand or sit up quickly, especially if you are an older patient. This reduces the risk of dizzy or fainting spells. Alcohol may increase dizziness or drowsiness; avoid alcoholic drinks.
Trazodone can make your mouth dry. Chewing sugarless gum, sucking hard candy and drinking plenty of water will help.
Do not treat yourself for coughs, colds, or allergies without asking your prescriber or health care professional for advice. Some ingredients may increase possible side effects.
If you are going to have surgery, tell your prescriber or health care professional that you are taking trazodone.
What side effects may I notice from taking trazodone?
Side effects that you should report to your prescriber or health care professional as soon as possible:
•fainting spells
•fast or irregular heartbeat (palpitations)
•painful erections or other sexual dysfunction
•skin rash
•trembling
Side effects that usually do not require medical attention (report to your prescriber or health care professional if they continue or are bothersome):
•blurred vision
•constipation
•drowsiness, dizziness
•dry mouth
•headache
•muscle aches or pains
•nausea, vomiting
•unusual tiredness or weakness
Where can I keep my medicine?
Keep out of the reach of children in a container that small children cannot open.
Store at room temperature, approximately 25 degrees C (77 degrees F). Avoid temperatures above 40 degrees C (104 degrees F). Protect from light. Keep container tightly closed. Throw away any unused medicine after the expiration date.

It being a anti-depressant and such is true. Where in the world did your daughter get these at???? If you don't know about them, and your hubby/significant other or such doesn't know about it, I would be finding out just who helped her to get them and raise some serious hell with them, possibly pressing charges for passing prescription meds. As far as you going thru your daughters things, WELL DONE!!!! Yes children should have privacy, but until they have their own place and not living under my roof that I pay for, they don't have complete privacy. It for reasons like what you found that parents need to invade the privacy when they have a gut feeling or have a good reason to think that something serious is being hid from them. I'm glad to see I'm not the only parent who will go thru things if I feel the need. I don't do it just to see who they're calling cute or that they cheated on a test. It has to be sex, drugs, drinking, smoking or any other illegal action I think my child may be involved in. I also do it with them right there in front of me, it takes away the argument that I was sneaking in their room/things. Good Luck!!

Its Trazadone! Its used for depression and alot of kids seem to take them for the BUZZ they offer. Flush them down the topilet and totally corner your daughter and let her know its NOT acceptable at all and u will not put uop with it, drug test her to make sure thats all she is taking! U can get drug tests from Walmart or Walgreens and do it for her own good and your peice of mind! Good luck to u

They could be a number of things, however I would confront her about them because she is your daughter living under your roof. Even if they are birth control then you may want to know if she is having sex so you can hopefully inform her better then what she may think is cool.
