Hi Margie and Dick; Trazodone is a mild antidepressant which because it is relatively sedating, is often prescribed in low doses as a sleep aid. It is not addicting and can be dually effective in that you get a good night's sleep AND feel less depressed. One warning for males: can cause priapism, which is the direct opposite of the male dilemma that requires Viagra.
