hi im on trazodone 100mg and to be honest i wish i never started taking them as i dont feel they help me at all, when i started to take them i was very dizzy and weak for a few day (even tho the dizziness is still there, think that my anxiety tho) i had headaches, it burned when i went to the toilet and i constantly got a dry mouth. not every ones the same tho this was just me i hope u the best dont be frightened to take them tho if the doc put you on them then im sure he thinks they will help pm if i can help any more, wish you all the best

Headaches should improve but dry mouth was a problem for me too. But if it helps then it's a small price to pay, eh? Hope it's helping.

Hi Hopers
I'm new on Trazodone too (50mg nightly), this is my 2nd week on it and it seems to be helping a bit. How are you getting on with it???

I have had a few headaches with it and a very dry mouth, I suck boiled sweets to counter-act this. I believe the headaches will go after a while? I am also taking Citalopram as that was what I was on before, I think my GP is going to wean me off that and put me totally on Trazodone because I have severe sleep problems as well as severe depression.
I don't mean to sound flippant (because I am not being that) but I wish I had loss of appetite, since starting the Trazodone I can't stop eating and I'm not small to begin with!!

Have you talked to your GP about your concerns? He/she should be able to put your mind at rest about the symptoms.
