Nortriptylin

Post by Pisama »

Hi! Do you have experienses of Nortriptylin? I used amytriptyl, but I got more weight. Dr said Nortriptylin is better, not so much side-effects like Amy. What u think?

I haven't had any success with any antidepressants of any kind for any symptom. Just intolerable side effects.

With nortriptyline, I found that I could barely move to get out of bed in the morning, so stiff, groggy, and stuffed up. Horrible stuff. Even at the low 10 mg dose.

Hope it works better for you. You won't know until you try it.
