Reviews for Nortriptyline to treat Depression

Review by krusinmom:

nortriptyline: My doctor switch me to nortriptyline for depression. I started out at 50mg a night for a month, then upped it 75mg a night. Since taking the 75mg, the depression has gone away. And I feel so much better. I've been on SSRI's for years and was always still depressed. The doctor told me I was allergic to SSRI's and put me on a tricyclic. Worked wonders.

nortriptyline: After some serious life events I became depressed - while I didn't truly realize it - my house became overly cluttered, work went from great to average, got behind on things... after attempts at Lexapro, we figured out that I was having a reaction to the Lexapro - We started on nortriptyline. The first winter I worked up to 75mg/day - then went off for a few months during the summer - this year I've worked from 25mg then to 50mg/day. It's amazing how much better I'm performing. I do have issues with the drowsiness but I try to work through that. Work is now improving after about 14 months of treatment and the home is slowly getting better.
