Accepted Answer

Most of the time: Headaches tend to be a short term side effect but like everything else you need to way the pros and cons.

Accepted Answer

Headache and Zoloft (sertraline): Headaches are possible side effects of both zoloft (sertraline) and trazodone. Usually, they go away with time as you take the medication. In some cases they do not, so it is very important to let your doctor know about the headaches. If the headache gets worse or you begin to have other symptoms such as confusion or dizziness, contact your doctor right away to let him/her know.

Question 5

nauseous, headaches, sleeping during the day. could this from withdrawal from trazodone? on it for about 2 months. am now on temazepam 30 mg.

Accepted Answer

No: Trazodone is a great medication for insomnia and does not cause withdrawal effects after it is stopped. It is more likely a problem from the Temazepam. Make sure to discuss with your doctor.

Question 6

can trazodone cause dry eyes, fullness & pressure in face/head, headache? do these ever go away?

Accepted Answer

It can cause all of: Those symptoms. It clogs the sinus pathway by leading to swelling of the nasal mucosa. This can lead to sinus headaches and it has other chemical effects that can lead to dry eyes. Please see your doctor to discuss other options, especially since it can  also cause or contribute to a disorder of daytime sleepiness. Best wishes.

Question 7

See your doctor: A severe eye infection should be treated and three are effective pain treatments as well. Please see your physician for an evaluation and further management.

Accepted Answer

See a Doctor.: Having stopped trazodone just like that will affect your sleep. I recommend to try increase  nortriptyline to 20 mg and see if it helps you sleep better.

Question 9

i am 51 and had my first grand mal seizure  2  weeks  ago.  was prescribed  paxil, (paroxetine) levetiracetam, clonazepam, trazodone  and butalbital. headache,why?

Accepted Answer

See doctor: Trazodone and paxil (paroxetine) can interact to increase brain serotonin levels. See your doctor treating you for seizures to evaluate headache. Review meds with doctor prescribing Trazodone and paxil (paroxetine) re possible drug interactions. I hope this helps.
