Hi, Trazadone did the same to me and increasing the dosage didn't help. I take a low dose of Thorazine when I can't sleep and it helps. I take 25 mg. Patients used to take up to 1000 mg of this med so you can see, 25 mg isn't much ... Anyhow, I have tried a lot of meds for sleep and this one works the best for me. I don't use it every night ... only when I can't sleep. Often I just put up with my insomnia because I have been an insomniac since I was a child.

> I wake every morning at either 2:15 or 3:15. My pdoc last Friday rx'd Trazodone (Desyrel) for sleep. I took the first 50mg pill last night and still woke at 3:15 and with symptoms of akathasia (especially restless legs). I used to experience akathasia alot on SSRI's so I recognize it for what it is.
