Could The Slight Chest Pain Be Due To The Medication Taken For Insomnia?

I ve been having minor chest pain the past five days. I ve started a new medication for insomnia Called trazdone which has been working pretty well the past few weeks. I dont think its serious but it is not going away. Should i see my family doctor right away or wait if it will go away? i ve never experienced chest pain before .

Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Common reason for insomnia are anxiety and poor sleep hygiene. Trazodon has effect on sleep and anxiety. Its use do not lead to chest pain.

Chest can occur due to anxiety, faulty sleep posture, muscle spasm and cardiac problem. It is better to rule out muscle spasm and cardiac problem by examination and investigation by general physician.

Wish you good health and all the best.
