How To Use

HOW TO TAKE TRAZODONE TABLETS

Always take this medicine exactly as your doctor or pharmacist have told you. Check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure. The dose of trazodone will depend on your needs and the illness being treated. The tablets should always be taken with plenty of water. Taking trazodone with, or soon after, food will lower the risk of side effects. If you are to take your dose as a single dose it should be taken just before going to bed. If you feel the effect of your medicine is too weak or too strong, do not change the dose yourself, but ask your doctor.

DEPRESSION AND DEPRESSION ACCOMPANIED BY ANXIETY:

Adults:

The recommended starting dose is 150mg each day in divided doses after food or as a single dose at bedtime.

This may be increased up to 300mg each day in single or divided doses.

The major portion of a divided dose is to be taken at bedtime. If you are in hospital the dose may be further increased to 600mg each day in divided doses.

Elderly:

Dosage in elderly or frail patients should be started at 100mg each day in divided doses or as a single dose at bedtime. This may be increased by your doctor depending on how you react to this medicine. Dosages above 300mg each day are unlikely to be required.

Use in children and adolescents

Trazodone is not recommended for use in children and adolescents under 18 years of age.

ANXIETY:

The recommended starting dose is 75mg each day and this may be increased to 300mg each day as necessary.

If you take more trazodone tablets than you should

It is important to stick to the dose on the label of the medicine. Do not adjust your dose without consulting with your doctor.

If you or someone else swallows several of these tablets all together, contact your doctor or nearest hospital emergency department immediately. Always take any tablets left over with you along with the box, as this will allow easier identification of the tablets.

The following effects may occur: nausea, sickness, drowsiness, dizziness, fainting, fits (seizures), confusion and problems with your heart or breathing.

If you forget to take trazodone tablets

If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose do not take a double dose to make up for a forgotten dose, just carry on as before.

If you stop taking trazodone tablets

  • Keep taking trazodone until your doctor tells you to stop. Do not stop taking trazodone just because you feel better
  • When your doctor tells you to stop taking these tablets he/she will help you stop taking them gradually
  • Stopping your medicine too quickly could cause sleep problems, leave you feeling more irritable than usual and cause you to sweat more than usual.

If you have any further questions on the use of this medicine, ask your doctor, pharmacist or nurse.

Warnings and precautions

Thoughts of suicide and worsening of your depression or anxiety disorder

If you are depressed and/or have anxiety disorders you can sometimes have thoughts of harming or killing yourself. These may be increased when first starting antidepressants, since these medicines all take time to work, usually about two weeks but sometimes longer.

You may be more likely to think like this:

  • If you have previously had thoughts about killing or harming yourself
  • If you are a young adult. Information from clinical trials has shown an increased risk of suicidal behaviour in adults aged less than 25 years with psychiatric conditions who were treated with an antidepressant.

If you have thoughts of harming or killing yourself at any time, contact your doctor or go to a hospital straight away.

You may find it helpful to tell a relative or close friend that you are depressed or have an anxiety disorder, and ask them to read this leaflet. You might ask them to tell you if they think your depression or anxiety is getting worse, or if they are worried about changes in your behaviour.

If you are elderly, you may be more prone to side effects, increased caution is necessary especially when taking other medicines at the same time as Trazodone tablets or if you have some other diseases.

Talk to your doctor, pharmacist or nurse before taking Trazodone tablets:

  • if you suffer from Epilepsy (fits or seizures)
  • if you have severe liver, kidney or heart problems
  • if you are pregnant, trying to become pregnant or are breast-feeding
  • if you have an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism)
  • if you have problems passing water or needing to pass water (urine) more frequently
  • if you have narrow angle glaucoma (an eye disease)
  • if you suffer from schizophrenia or other type of mental disorder

If you are not sure if any of the above applies to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking trazodone.
