Dr. Bahman Omrani answered

Specializes in Pain Management

Rare: Muscle pain or myalgia is unlikely to occur while taking trazadone and only a few case reports have been reported in the medical literature. Common side effects are dizziness, drowsiness, constipation, blurred vision, and rarely priapism.
