It depends on your body. Trazadone is a generic prescribed sleep aid and Ambien is name brand. For people who's body can 'use' a generic, than Trzadone will be strong enough. For those who have to have name brand, Trazadone will not work well.
Tricyclic antidepressants (TCA's) like trazodone (Desyrel) and amitriptyline (Elavil).
Yes; trazodone is commonly prescribed off-label for insomnia or as a sleep aid.
I have been on trazodone for about 5 years for insomnia. I can tell you that at least for me that smoking pot along with it causes me to be very very relaxed. If i just smoke pot or just take the trazodone alone --I can't sleep. as far as long term effects or any of that -- i don't know.
Though it is an antidepressant, it is felt to have more of an activating influence that sedating when taken. A more common alternative would be Desyrel (trazodone) taken at bedtime for sleep.
Antidepressants that have been shown to have analgesic (pain-reducing) properties include amitriptyline (Elavil), trazodone (Desyrel), and imipramine (Tofranil). Anticonvulsant drugs share a similar background with antidepressants.
I am on Prozac, 10mg. for daytime use and 25mg. of elavil to relieve insomnia due to use of Prozac. Seems to work quite well!
