View Full Version : Trazadone
Have just been prescribed this by the GP after having a few traumatic years and my insomnia going wild - can go for days with no sleep. Have tried Mirtazapine but had no effect in putting me to sleep - hopefully this will am starting on 50mg nightly - I hate going to bed knowing I'm not going to sleep :weep: Have tried all the sleep hygiene etc but has no effect. Any positives about this medication please?
It helped me to get to sleep, definitely. :). Be sure to take it after food or a light snack for it to work, and it's quite slow so about an hour or two before bed.

This med is probably one of the most prescribed off label drugs in the UK for insomnia. And at 50mg the side effect profile is very small, you would be unlucky if you get any nasties.
Well took my first 50mg tablet last night - no sleep. Do they take time to get into your system?
Traz should make you feel tired quite quickly. Didn't you feel anything? Maybe you need higher dose then.
i take 200mg liquid form.i take it at bedtime and find it has helped me to sleep.i had bad insomnia for months this meds has saved me.the liquid form wotks quick and im out like a light withing 15 min of taking it
Definitley helped me sleep (not that i was struggling beforehand).
Unfortunately Ive gone up to 150mg and it hasnt helped the anxiety .
