Can I Continue To Take Trazadone?
I am taking Trazadone to help me sleep. I think the dosage is 40 or 50 mg. I ve been taking it for about 15 years. I am 62 years young and would like to know if, since I have no health problems, I can continue to take this medication. I ve cut down on my coffee per my doctors suggestion.

you can stop taking, nothing can conquer ur determination to sleep. i am pretty sure you would have slept even without taking the medication. go for long walks, do simple and breathing exercises. get ur liver function tests done to ensure that the drug did not have any side effects
