My doctor has prescribed Trazodone (50mg) as part of our efforts to end my insomnia.
It appears the FAA does not accept this drug: https://www.leftseat.com/psychotropic-medications/ since it is sometimes used for depression.
But no mention of it here: https://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/avs/offices/aam/ame/guide/pharm/sleepaids/
I'm not flying for unrelated reasons and my Class III medical lapsed. At least six months until I fly, and considering going Basic Medical versus Class III.
Anyone with specific knowledge about Trazodone and the FAA have any thoughts? Thank you.
