Re: Amitriptyline 10mg Help with side effects please
I'm on 150mg now for anxiety and depression. The only side effects I've had is a really dry mouth but that's subsiding now. Other than that it has really given me my life back/ I still have the odd bad day and as I only increased from 100mg to 150mg 3 weeks ago, I still wake up feeling low and anxious but it can wear off within minutes now; just not quite there yet but 10mg is/was a tiny dose. I remember when I first took Ami, I slept for 18 hours, now my sleep is normal but I was suffering with terrible insomnia before I took this meds xxx

Hi Annie, I know its been a while since you posted. My side effects sound just like yours. Are you still on them?

I'm just wonder how this drug differs from Clominiprine. Which is best for anxiety and panic disorder?
Re: Amitriptyline 10mg Help with side effects please
I gave up with the amitriptyline and went back to dosulipin which works for me.

Amitriptyline can give you these side affects, I’m on 20mg and started on 10 for 1 week going up to 20. I felt like a zombie, dizzy, Panicked, tired, dry mouth, sickly but I also suffer anxiety and panick and I think that made the symptoms worse! I started exercising more and using mints for the dry mouth, as I started to exercise I took the dose down to 15 and this took away all of the symptoms.

You could try Doxepin 10mgs (which is a cousin of Ami) just to be sure it's not all tricyclics. It has no side effects on me but it is a very small dose.
