Insomnia
"Just prescribed  Trazodone for severe insomnia. First night took 75 mg, immediate and deep sleep till morning but what I would call a hangover effect for rest of day. Woke up with severe cramp in calf muscle. Headache, eyeballs hurt oddly enough, tired throughout day, etc.

Last night took perhaps 30 mg which took longer for sleep but it still worked for the insomnia, but again a heavy sense of hangover and fatigue throughout the day.  Crampy calves. The doctor says these side effects should subside within a week  but I&#039;m not sure. So my take on it is that it works really well for insomnia, but the side effects during the day, if they continue, are totally not worth it.  Basic waste of entire day. There&#039;s enough variety in the comments I have read that I may keep giving it a try for a time. I find a variety of responses to it kind of strange and interesting."
