I took this one night and had the worst side effects of any medicine I've been on--and I've tried a lot. It didn't make me tired, yet the next day I was extremely groggy. I couldn't eat at all since I was so nauseous. I took a small bite of a muffin and had to spit it out because I felt I was going to throw up. I have a headache advil won't cure and my eyes are sore and tired. I constantly feel like I have to use the bathroom and am quite gassy for some reason. I only took it one night, but I'm not trying it again. I can't afford these side effects when I'm already having trouble eating and I have a 3 year old child to take care of. I've been basically bedridden the whole day. | F | 24 | 1 days 60 | 11/17/2015 | 4 | Bipolar depression trouble sleeping | Took it for 20 yrs but since I started takiking Lunesta also 9 yrs ago I have had side effects. I sleep with a cpap & need the Lunesta but if I do not fall asleep in one hour the horrible side effects start!! Feeling of restlesdness & inability to sit stil, muscle spasms & contractions, involuntsry muscle movement, aching. I have to tub my shoulders & legs!! It finally goes away after 2 hours!! I have had it & went cold turkey with Trazodone and was up till 4 am!!!! But just slight side effect so it must have been withdrawal! I have to get off this for good!! | F | 62 | 10 years 50 | 11/1/2015 | 5 | Depression and to sleep. 300mg | Anger frustration major anxiety migraine thoughts of giving myself a black eye | I have been having severe migrains and have done all the "migraine". treatments. Now they have taken me off Trazodone in 10 days but at the same time adding ammitriptaline 30mg for headaches. So far still severe migraines and now eye stabbing pain and have felt nausua ANGER ANXIETY wanting to give myself a black eye frustration | F | 58 | 9 years | 10/31/2015 | 1 | Sleepliness | I started out taking 50 mg a day at night because I couldn't sleep. I went to sleep easily and slept great. After a while the dosage had to be increased to 100 and then to 150. I suffered from dry mouth and dry eyes terribly. I began to get acid reflux and was put on medication for that. I didn't connect the medication to the acid reflux which kept getting worse. Then I began to experienced racing heart. To the point where I had to go to the dr. And have tests. They concluded that the trazodone was causing the fast heartbeat..and took me off. I went thru hell getting off it. It took months. And then one day I realized that my acid reflux was gone. The stomach bloating was gone. The dry eyes and dry mouth were gone. I still haven't found a solution to my sleep problems but I'll never take trazodone again. | F | 69 | 3 years 150 1X day | 9/13/2015 | 4 | Chronic insomnia, depression, PTSD | My problem with trazodone is my body got extremely use to it which is why I'm at 150mg(and I refuse to go higher). The medicine has honestly helped me so much over the years BUT within the past 2 years it has over the time stopped working for me because I've had to also take OTC sleep aid to assist with the sleeping or even if I did take OTC I still would stay awake and not sleep (granted my insomnia especially as of lately since my grandmother has passed has been acting as if it's insomnia on steroids). Another thing is I only take it at night to sleep - regardless if I've eaten 30 minutes before, an hour, or even 3 hours before I get so nauseous when I go to lay down to the point that keeps me awake. I don't know why it is doing this and neither does my doctor. | The thing about trazodone, it doesn't work for everyone just like any medications. I have been on it for 7 years and only until the last two years I've had problems. | F | 24 | 7 years 150 | 8/29/2015 |
