Hi can anyone help my friend she a been Amitriptyline for 2 years it as slowly stopped working dose 50mgdoctor as give her nortriptyline how quickly can you change from Amitriptyline to Nortriptyline Thank you if anyone can help
Hello,
I have been prescribed Nortriptyline after using Amitriptyline and haven’t really experienced any real issues so far. I noticed whilst using Ami I did have a problem with sweating excessively and waking up with quite a dry throat (after taking meds the previous evening). I also remember if I missed taking my Ami pill or suddenly stopped taking them all together I would feel the occasional brain zap. Since switching to Nortriptyline have not noticed any side effects to date, however it still doesn’t seem to fully cure my anxiety / head pressure / tension headaches 
This may or may not of been of any help !
Thank you for your reply it as helped hope you feel better soon.
