Has anyone taken trazadone for sleep. My doctor gave me a low dose but not sure of side affects. I don't really like taking pills. Have had a hard time sleeping for awhile. Melatonin doesn't work

I have been taking Trazodone for sleep for a few months. It works great.
I don’t like taking pills either, but I do like sleeping through the night.

I have taken Trazadone for several years. It works fine with me. I take it about 2 1/2 hours before I get ready for bed. It helps my mind slow down so I can go to sleep. Getting the right dosage is the key. And, as with everything, it doesn't work for everyone. I have had no side effects.

Yes and it worked for a while. Then it pooped out.
