I love amitriptyline, I’m on 100mg for facial pains and headaches. This time last year I was having 100 facial pain and headaches every day. I’m now having 4.
I started at 10mg per day then went up to 25mg and up 12.5mg every two weeks.
I have vagina atrophy it had not made me dryer, I also had dry eyes with menopause, I’ve had no eye troubles with Amitriptyline. Dry mouth but that got better as my body got use to the medication.
My sleep is wonderful, a bit sleepy in the morning for the first couple of weeks. Please DO NOT TAKE IT ONE HOUR BEFORE BED, that information is wrong. You take it 12 hours before you wake up.
As I wake up every morning at 5.30am I take amitriptyline at 5.30pm.
It’s dry up my nose, helps with over random pains in my body. Plus the antidepressant is amazing, last year I was depressed and not myself, I couldn’t be happy even when good things were happening.
I love Amitriptyline, it has saved me, my doctor won’t let me on HRT due to ovaries, thank god for Amitriptyline
