My daughter takes trazadone too. She also had weird dreams the first month or so, but it does really help her sleep. I recommend to take it when your ready for bed, it does work fast. she gets a good 4-5 hours of deep sleep before she starts to toss and turn and but she does fall back to sleep right away. I hope it works for your daughter.

Hi I was on this for sleep pre rsd and then my pain doc mentioned it again for pain and sleep. For me it did help for and I am a hard case with sleep type meds but in time I had to increase a dose that was causing migraines. I have a few friends who have been on this and adjusting the dose has helped with side effects. I hope your daughter gets relief and sleep.

Hi I take trazodone for sleep. I have the rsd but they have not mentioned that it might help the pain. After a month or so on it the wierd dreams stopped and I was still sleeping good at night. With out it I can not rest at night. Ambien was given to me to add to it on bad pain nights but if I take two like the doctor said I usally sleep a good 6 hours before the pain comes back through and the tossing and turning starts. Hope it helps your daughter.
