Trazodone Hydrochloride and trazodone

I am prescribed trazodone 150mg cause I am a sever clinical depressant. I have adjusted it to 75mg. due to feeling so bad on the high dose. I now sleep which I was not before. And when I have a bad day I take the full dose. It works for me. I have not noticed any side effects.

The doctor gave me Trazodone to sleep at night. I was going through a bad time taking care of my dieing husband, working full time and taking care of the kids.
It gave me severe nightmares, ones that were so real that it was like they were in 3-D. Its hard to explain. I started to hate going to bed at night.
Then I got smart and quit taking the stuff.

I've recently been prescribed 150 mls per night , since taking them I've become extremely bad tempered , moody, snappy, crying , everyone is on the receiving end
i feel i cant take anymore

I have been taking los dose (50mg) Trazodone as a sleep aide for about 3 months. Since the first week I have had horrible headaches, worse than any migraine I've ever had. These headaches are always one sided and cause hearing problems for the duration of the headache. Nothing,and i do mean NOTHING will stop these headaches except percocet. My Dr is having me do an MRI just to be sure theres nothing wrong in my head, but I honestly think its the Trazodone.

Trazodone helps me sleep; however I find if the dosage is too high I wake up with a sinus headache in the morning. I have also gained some weight - although I am not sure it is a side effect of trazodone - could be thyroid issues.

I take 50 mgs of trazodone at bedtime for sleep and some nights I have restless legs they just feel like I need to jerk them. Has anyone else had anything like this happen to them?

im just starting to take trazodone. i am 30 .i am not depressed, and do not think about death....but i do not sleep. since ive started this med i find myself still awake alert and thinking where i was told it would help stop that! so i guess ill just have to wait and c if it changes

I took it for a while 2 years ago because I was depressed from using drugs. I was anxious and severly depressed. I would get hot sensations all over my head and my ears would turn bright red and have a burning sensation I also couldn't get an erection and my penis felt tinngly. But the first night I starte the trazodone I was able to fall asleep and I had an erection for about 20min. that kinda scared me. I was on I for a few months and I think it worked very well. Side effects included sleepiness, dizziness(not that bad just when I would walk down a flight of staris), very tired or druged feeling in the morning(goes away after an hour or so). Over all I thought that I would never be the same but I think the Traz. had really helped. Now that I'm off I pretty much feel like the same old me except for the drug promblem. I don't think I had any bad sideffects coming off except for a little bit of dizziness.

i take 200mg of trazodone at bed time they put me to sleep and keep me sleep i'm tired when i get up in the morng .but during the day i loose my balence and the only way i can discibe it is i get brain shocks.

my doctor just prescribed me with 50 mg of trazodone (once before bed), and 2mg Ativan as needed. I took an Ativan 3 hrs before my Trazodone. 3 hours after trazedone (12am), I went (waddled) to be and had my first good nights sleep in years. The problem was I had slept until 1pm. My husband tried to wake me up, but I guess I was a log. I am taking these for Anxiety/Panic attacks.I don't want to sleep my life away..should I switch to Paxil or something? My headaches are deep and i never get headaches. This is the second time taking them.

hello my 5 year old son is on trazodone, he has been on it 4 3 years and it does not work. I give it to him at 9:00 at night and he is up again at 1:00 in the morning so it does not help him at all . he hoes to at 7:30 and it is hard for him to cause he has no sleep at all.
