User Reviews for Amitriptyline

Elavil (amitriptyline): Big help for vulvodynia.

Elavil (amitriptyline): Awesome pain inhibitor for this condition but I had too many side effects like heart palpitations and hair loss.

Elavil (amitriptyline): Amitriptyline made a huge difference to my daily life in terms of pain relief from Vulvodynia, but it has many side effects. I stuck to a low level 25mg and had to wiegh up benefits vs side-effects. Changed to Nortriptyline and had the same benefits but less side-effects. Now take 30mg of Nortriptyline.

amitriptyline: I have been taking 10mg for about a month and it had almost completely eliminated the pain. Within 2 days of my first dose, I had relief. At 10mg the only side effects I've had were dry mouth and mild sleepiness, but only at night, and in the early morning. I imagine if I were on a higher dose I might have more side effects. I occasionally will get a twinge of pain, here and there, but mostly I've been pain free.

Elavil (amitriptyline): Elavil really worked for the vulvadynia discomfort. Unfortunately, it also made me super anxious and shaky, and I just couldn't tolerate it.
