It all depends: I mention a diagnosis of bipolar. If you take it for depression the dose should be in the range of 200-400 as long as you are also taking a mood stabilizer. Would not be my first choice if you are trying to use it as a sedative (in light of your bipolar history).

Bipolar D/O: Your additional patient information does say you are bipolar, but there are no mood stabilizers on your medication list. I would be cautious about raising your trazodone dose. Sleep disturbance can signify a hypomanic or manic episode developing, and you would not want to precipitate that. I encourage you to work with a psychiatrist on this, and find better treatments than trazodone alone.
