I’ve been using Trazadone for several months to get to sleep – 75mg. I never had any unusal problem re getting sick but note that the prescription states that it is to be taken with FOOD.  Perhaps you might want to try it and see if that helps.  For me, at least, Trazadone was the answer but I had to fiddle with the dosage.  I was fortunate to have a sleep doctor who understood that I knew enough about the medication to assist myself in changing the dose. Good luck. Marc – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text -

Response:

By sick I assume you mean gastrointestinal symptoms which are not uncommon with trazodone. Might be soluble with minimal dosing. Also there is a related drug nefazodone (Serzone) which might be lighter in side effects. It is not clear what the newer sleeping medications do to apneics, like Ambien. Other alternatives are still other sedative antidepressants like amitriptyline or nortriptyline. Melatonin might help.
