Insomnia
"I&#039;ve taken trazodone (150 mg) every night for 8 years for sleep apnea and severe insomnia. It makes me fall asleep and stay asleep, but it makes me tired and drowsy the next day. It also gives me nightmares, and I wake up in cold sweats, and I&#039;ve even woken up shouting before. I&#039;ve tried over the counter meds and things like Lunesta but they make me hallucinate, and they don&#039;t make me tired enough to fall asleep. Overall Trazodone was effective but with one bad side effect."
