amitriptyline

[rob-ski]

Hi everyone. Got a question on the above med. I have been taking amitryptilyne 10mg for 3 weeks now without any major side effects. Last night i had to up my dose to 20mg, i feel like a zombie and so so tired, my skin feels so sensitive. Does anyone know if this will wear off if i keep up that doseage, feel like reducing it back to 10mg.
Thankyou in anticipation

Its a very low dose- just a muscle reaxant. The lowest therapeutic dose for anx or deprssion is75 mg. I got side effects at that level but you should hardly feel anything at 10 or 20 mg. Good luck x
