Will the side effects of the trazodone decrease with use or will they last? If they last, can I reduce the trazodone to a quarter of tablets instead of half a tablet?

I understand that you have been taking 25 mg of Trazodone to sleep for 2 days and that you are also taking 0.5 mg of Rivotril and a bio-identical hormone tablet at bedtime. You are also taking 0.25 mg of Rivotril and 5 mg of Cipralex in the morning and your doctor will likely increase the Cipralex to 10 mg. In light of this information, I recommend that you discuss with your pharmacist and doctor in order to reduce your dose of Trazodone. It is possible that this will reduce the side effects that you are feeling during the day. It is also possible that increasing the dose of Cipralex will not worsen your dizziness and your "eyes closing".
