[|Human|] My 88 yr old wife, post stroke on 01/09/2018 is being given trazodone in a rehab facility. her evening or resting hours are filled with insomnia, anxious behavior, restlessness , confusion, thus not much solid sleep. She is also on a blood thinner and has afib,a valvue issue and CHF. I believe this is not a good match, she then is weaker, not connecting the dots and very drowsy most of the day. What do you think of this as a sleep aide

Management of insomnia in these patients requires very careful evaluation and exclusion of an underlying medical or psychiatric condition. Nonpharmacologic interventions in elderly patients, especially use of behavioral therapy, have demonstrated some successor can discuss newer medications with psychiatrists Regards
