I was on Amitriptyline recently, for a short time. In combination w/ other drugs I was taking it didn't help.
About 20 years ago, I was on Amitrip. for 5 years or so. The start up side effects were pretty bad and I always was dealing with constipation, some fear of heights. I was taking an average of 250 mg daily and gained about 15 pounds of, mostly muscle. Had lots of energy and slept like a rock.
When I first reached a therapeutic dose, I saw a world I had never seen. It blew me away.
Also, SE wise, excessive sweating and it had it'ss share of sexual side effects.
Hope this helps some.
