Description

Dr. Keith Roach is a physician at Weill Cornell Medical College. He writes an educational column on infectious diseases, public health and sports medicine.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I’m an 83-year-old female who’s in good health. I don’t take any prescriptions, and I’m not overweight. I donate blood regularly, work out at a gym, and hike. I started taking 50 mg of trazodone in January 2019 for its side effect of helping with sleep. It helped somewhat, so my doctor increased the dose.
