User Reviews for Amitriptyline

Elavil (amitriptyline): I take 25mg at bedtime for interstitial cystitis and it works great for me. It does take some time to get used to and it makes you tired but after a month or so I had no complaints.

Elavil (amitriptyline): I take amitriptyline 10mg at bedtime. I have been taking it for about 5 weeks now. It has made a big difference with my bladder and my mood. I am going to try and increase the dose as it doesn't help me sleep. I am overall very happy with the results of this medicine for my bladder. I have had Interstitial cystitis for 10 years.

Elavil (amitriptyline): Works well against nerve pain- and Interstitial Cystitis in particular. Good stuff. Does take some getting used to and will leave you groggy in the morning for the first few weeks.

Elavil (amitriptyline): I have not experienced side effects with Elavil and it has really helped to keep my Inerstitial Cystitis in check. I am so thankful for it.

amitriptyline: I use this for frequent urination/interstitial cy. I have been on it for three weeks, and it works great. I am a little tired from it...but it is no big deal.

Elavil (amitriptyline): I take 30mg at bedtime, and after only 3 days, I was able to sleep through the night (without having to pee). I couldn't be happier with the results. 80% improvement in my Interstitial Cystitis.

Elavil (amitriptyline): This was a miracle for my Interstitial cystitis symptoms. However, I gained over 30 pounds and jumped over 6 pants sizes in about 3 months. I had to come off the medicine due to weight gain (which did not fall off easily) and immediately went back to my severe interstitial cystitis symptoms. It unfortunately is not the solution for me, other than managing my pain through diet. I have not found another medicine I can take without causing weight gain or other symptoms that cannot be overcome.

amitriptyline: I started this medication a few weeks ago and it's already working. I don't wake up as much in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom and I sleep a lot better. I haven't felt this good in awhile. I can even eat/drink things I normally wouldn't be able to (in moderation of course).

Endep (amitriptyline): I had been tested for everything to try and find the cause of constant bladder infections, or so I thought. It wasn't till I saw a urologist that I found the answer to my problem. I never had Bladder infections, but chronic cystitis, found after some very intrusive camera shots of my bladder. She first tried stretching my bladder to see if this helped. It didn't. She then suggested Endep, not for depression but it had been used for cystitis and burning mouth, which I also suffer from. It has helped my burning bladder problem 100% as long as I don't forget to take my tablets. If I forget just one, I have the pain back for about two weeks before I get back on track. My burning mouth is also about 60% better but not gone. "Side effects weight gain".
