Hi
I was giving amitriptyline 10mg about a week ago for pain and just wanted to know if there worth sticking with as a part from feeling ruff as anything the next day they also give me bad palpitations as if my heart keeps racing then hand braking. I am on bisoprol for palpitations so not sure if to stop the amitriptyline. Am also on venlafaxine for depression and was wondering if this can clash with these
I've been taking 25mg for over 25 years..never been increased, sleep like a baby..never feel pain in sleep, never experienced palpitations on them, however all meds work differently, for different people..I would check out what all the meds do together,,your doc should have told you what to expect....grrr...maybe there is a hospital pharmacist you could ring..be blessed Jon, have a great day..:-) xxx
25mg of amitrip for 18 months for nerve pain ive now been off um 31 days i was hospitilised twice with heart rate 124plus due to this medication palpitation free now and much more energy i was sensitive to this medication took me 18 month work it out
Am on tablets for palpations so I think I will stop these
Wow!! Darren, I've been on them over 16 years..and never had that issue..I guess it's like all our meds,they work for well for some not for others..I'm counting my blessings right now..be blessed, hope you get something that works well for you..have a great day..:-) xxx
hi christine i was sensitive to amitrip i stayed on it so long because it did shift the nerve pain but fatigue and palpitations were a nightmare took me a while realise what was causing it,iam now getting around much better and no more palpitations,but this drug does work for most people i was just a one off
just see how you go jon it is possible it could be amitrip
I'm sure, the doc will find something for you that will help you..without that nasty side effect, unfortunately the is usually always some side effect..you did give it a good try...be blessed, have a great day..:-) xx
