Did I take to much xanax and trazodone?

[MichelleBBB_19]

I took 300mg of trazodone and 2mg of xanax. Is this safe? I followed my pharmacist's instructions, but I'm a bit worried. I can't remember what my doctor said. It's supposed to treat my insomnia, but the doctor recently upped the dose and added trazodone. So I'm not sure if my dose is correct anymore

Hi there MichelleBBB.  How are you doing now? What did your doctor say?  I hope all is well in your world!

Hi, welcome.  You can always touch base with your doctor with a phone call (they have an answering service and he should return the call or one of the doctors on call for his practice).  But a pharmacist is very well versed in medications.  They might (might being key) even be more knowledgeable than doctors in terms of pharmacology and interactions.  From what I know, trazadone and Xanax are different classes of medication but you can get an increase in certain side effects such as dizziness, inability to concentrate, clumsiness, etc.  Pretty sure driving would be a no no.  Give your doctor a call to verify.  Is this a night time regime for you?

Thank you for your answer. I fell asleep after posting. It was indeed nighttime. I woke up again so that's great! I will call my doctor in a few minutes, it's still a little to early. But thank you for reassuring me!
