Trazadone / Health / Effects?!

Trazadone / Health / Effects?

I just went on this med, 50mg before bed to sleep. I am/went through a bad case of insomnia/depression and was prescribed it by a mental health doc/nurse. It seems to help, I have had it twice, and am supposed to take it again. I really want to be able to sleep normally and not be dependant on a med.

Health /Effects Questions: I don't really notice to much on the side of a problem other than if I have to get up and use the restroom I have a hard time getting there usually and by morning I am out of it and feel weird and spacey.

Is Trazodone a safe med to take? I generally refrain from all meds unless its really necessary.

Is it also easy to go off of? If I start sleeping and feeling normal again I would like to stop it, as said, I have taken it twice and tonight will be the third time.


Thanks in advance.

I've been taking 50 mg. Trazadone for quite a while, most, but not all, nites. No side effects but I believe it is only marginally effective for me. Have not heard nor read anything bad about it.
