Two things:
I've never seen amitriptyline 150mg pills, the most common are 10,25 and I think 75. Are you sure
about what you took?Any benzo will greatly exacerbate the CNS depressant effect of amitrip, especially for someone who's not on amitrip regularly.
Glad you're ok.
> I recently tried amitriptyline for the first time. It wasn't mine, but I took two pills, which I think amounted to about 300mg. I took a Xanax or two. I really really didn't think I would be harmed, but I collapsed, was admitted to the ICU, and didn't wake up until, I think, the next day.
