Do not drink alcohol while you are taking trazodone. Alcohol can increase drowsiness and dizziness caused by trazodone. Stop taking trazodone and call your doctor at once if you have a penis erection that is painful or lasts 4 hours or longer. This is a medical emergency and could lead to a serious condition that must be corrected with surgery.
Before taking trazodone
Do not use this medication if you are allergic to trazodone.
I have chronic back pain, shoulder pain and arthritis in my knees. I've been prescribed percoset 10/325 for several years, and I used it ocassionally until the last year or so when I began taking 2 to 3 pills a day fairly regularly. I also have used trazodone for 5 years to sleep at night (never more than 1 pill).
It looks like I may spend 4 to 9 months in county jail or prison for a non-drug charge. I know that percoset and trazodone will not be allowed. I'm worried about the pain.
t really eat much, I stomached a bowl of cereal yesterday morning, but thats pretty much it since saturday. I have also been taking IBU, flexerall, and today I am taking trazodone. The trazodone I got from a friends dad today, and haven't really noticed any change, but who knows, maybe its too soon. or I am psyching myself out.
Thanks again,
Much love!
Had Anterior Lumbar Spinal Surgery in Lower Back to insert cages and spacers at S1/L5/L4 one year later after first back surgery went through front of my abdomen) and after surgery had both back Pain and foot pain and calf pain on right side was excuciating. Been on Fentnal Patches, Morphine then to Oxcoden and Percocet last 2 years and then had spinal stimulator implanted one year ago to help with pain....
that's a really low dose of Ativan and Ativan generally takes quite awhile to take effect, possibly an hour or two. I've tried trazodone too and that doesn't do much either - it's an antidepressant with sedation as a side effect, so they figure it will work but a lot of times it doesn't. If the trazodone doesn't work don't bother with it.
My psychiatrist prescribed Trazodone to help me sleep. I was on it for one week and started having chest pains, tachycardia and dizziness. I went to the ER because I was concerned. The said nothing was wrong with my heart. So I tried to find the answer elsewhere. I looked up the side effects of Trazodone. All my syptoms and more are listed. I went back to the doctor yesterday. I told him what happened.
I tried trazodone when I first started detoxing........it actually made me wired and kept me awake. I take Melatonin and Valerian at night....it really helps. I also read at night...it gets my mind off of things and relaxes me enough to fall asleep. I don't sleep a lot..usually about 4-5 hours a night...but it seems to be all I need anymore. When I was taking pills, I would sleep 10 hours a night!
I still get real bad RLS at night and the Valerian seems to help that.
He had a thorough checkup today at the hospital and the attending physician agreed it probably was the Trazodone so told my husband to stop taking it (which he already had done) but to continue with the beta blockers until he saw the specialist again. Apparently it takes about a week to get the Trazodone out of a person's system so now it's a waiting game. Yes, we were scared. We were also surprised the heart specialist didn't make the connection; however, it is rare.
My wife took 100 mg Trazadone every night before bed as a sleeping aid, an off label use. I tried it myself and it didn't work as a sleep aid. I was also looking form help with stress caused depression, it didn't seem to help me in that area either. I switched to Sertraline (Zoloft) not sure if that will help with depression or not.
I find the generic Ambien doesn't help me sleep either.
After having total knee replacement 2 months ago, I was given hydrocodone 10-325, Tramadol 50mg and then eventually Trazodone 100mg (for sleep). At first I was taking max dosage of hydrocodone and supplementing with the Tramadol between dosages. I was in a lot of pain and not sleeping, so was prescribed Trazodone about 2 weeks into recovery. Over the two months, I began to have terrible stomach issues..constipation, nausea and general malaise. After talking to my Dr.
I have to say that after taking Trazodone for a couple of weeks I could have healthy sex with or without viagra. I took Trazodone for a bit more than 3 months and then gradually stopped. for the following 4 months I could also have good sex ONLY when taking viagra. But now (after 6 months of stopping Trazodone) viagra stopped working again.
My question is: Did the doctor tell me to stop taking it too soon? should I start taking trazodone again for a longer time?
A large number of our patients took Trazodone in conjunction with opiates before they went through our detoxification and have had no issues. What sounds a bit concerning is the quantity of Norco’s you are taking. Your tolerance level could escalate in parallel to your pain level. This condition is called Hyperalgesia and you can check our website for more information at http://www.opiates.com/newsletters/opioid-induced-hyperalgesia.html. I hope you sleep better and feel less pain.
Dear Daisy,
Every single medication, even seemingly innocuous ones like Tylenol and aspirin, come with a long list of risks and benefits. Trazodone does as well. As physicians, our job is to weigh the risk to benefit ratio in each case based on the special circumstances of that particular patient. Trazodone has a high benefit to risk ratio for most patients and thus considered a relatively safe medication.
