I recently was prescribed Trazodone 50mg at night for insomnia and depression. After the first dose last night, I have struggled all day with significant indigestion and heartburn. I've read all the reviews and no one has mentioned anything about these side effects.
Does Trazodone cause indigestion and/or heartburn?

I am so glad you asked this. I take Trazodone for sleep, I have been for about 7 years. Within the last year I started to experience indigestion and heartburn. I don't think after all this time it could be caused by Trazodone, but you bring up a point that I have never considered. I would suggest giving it a few weeks and hopefully it will resolve itself.

I know I'm a little late on this one, but I took Trazodone for a few years and never realized that it caused constipation for me until I got off of it. Then I was put on Ambien until it didn't work anymore. My doctor basically gave up on me because as far as antidepressants just stop working and it's like going through the alphabet with starting at A and then one by one, going back to A. I call my meds my "crazy cocktail ". I'm back on Trazodone, I'm afraid of the stomach side affects again, does anyone have any suggestions???
Thank ya'll!!
