Has anybody ever heard of giving trazodone 270 mg daily. I can not find it in this dosage. It comes in 50, 100, 150 and 300 mg. Cannot find anywhere where it says given as 270 mg ?
TIA

Most commonly prescribed for pain patients at 25 mg, and then they titrate it up, sometimes cutting pills in half. Yes, also used for headaches and sleep. Been on it for years.
