I was not able to locate anything stating Trazodone keeps you up. I would tell your doctor that prescribed you this medication what you are experiencing.

Do you have any more questions or information to add? Please post back if you do.

i just tried it and it also kept me up. i was told by a friend who used it for years that there is a short window where it make you terribly drowsy and at that point if you do not sleep but stay up to finnish a tv program or do something, then the window closes and you stay up... that is exactly what happened to me... plus i had a headache and runny nose all day the next day... i'm sticking to valium.
