My Pdoc just started me on Trazadone. (I currently take 225 mg of Effexor XR a day, 150mg in the morning and 75 mg at dinner time (about 6pm)) I take the Trazadone at night to help me sleep and stay asleep. He prescribed me 100mg pills, but told me to break them in half and start with 50mg at first. He said I could take up to 300 mgs, if it is necessary, but would probably feel hungover the next day. I have only taken 50mg, but I was reading a drug monograph, and it said they should be taken with caution, because of the risk of developing serotonin syndrome. I am really worried...but I do trust my pdoc...Does anyone have any input??? Any opinions or info is appreciated
