Hi, Gereatric!
It will take anywhere from 1-3 days for the drug to be completely out of your system after your last dose. Depending on your metabolism it's half life is 5-13 hours meaning that after 5-13 hours 50% is left in your system, after another 5-13 hours 25% is left, etc.
Best regards and I hope you're feeling better quickly.

Hi Wildcat , Thank you for responding this info helps . I do not feel as bad or like a zombie today . I Have on going problems with high blood pressure and sleep and the trazodone was taking it down to 98 / 55 /60 . Have a doctor appointment on 9/7/22 , will see if he can give me something else for sleep . I tried melatonin and hydroxyzine 25 mg , but felt groggy and tired all day and only slept 3 to 4 hours . Again thanks for your response . Have a good day . Gereatric
