Question : My dose of trazadone is not helping my insomnia. Is it safe to go from 100mg to150mg?
Brief Answer:
It is not advisable to do so.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for consulting HealthcareMagic!
It is not advisable to do so without doing a complete physical examination. Lot of other factors like dependency etc need to be considered. Today’s research indicates that a move toward individualizing the dosing of prescription agents is warranted and it can happen only after physical consultation.
Wish you good health!
