Pamelor (nortriptyline) for Pain: Cycled off opiates after a severe multi-trauma accident onto a pamelor/amitryptilline combo. Worked very well. Definitely get yourself some eyedrops, though. Needed the brand name, because the generic gave me cardiac arrythmias. I am very impressed with this drug.

Pamelor (nortriptyline) for Smoking Cessation: I had smoked for 36 years and had tried to give up with patches etc. After taking this drug for less than 3 weeks I was well on my way to stopping, and have since given up completely. It stops the desire, but also the anxiety.

Pamelor (nortriptyline) for Tinnitus: I tried this drug a few years ago when I was first diagnosed with tinnitus. After a couple nights of taking it the ringing became louder.

Pamelor (nortriptyline) for Migraine Prevention: I had taken almost everything for migraines and came up with a combination of Topamax and Elavil. I work in intensive care and started having memory problems. I also started sleeping almost constantly. I scheduled an appointment with the neurologist at my hospital and started on nortriptyline. This is the first time I've had total control. I'm not sleepy and I have more of my old self back. It feels good not to have any pain.

Pamelor (nortriptyline) for Smoking Cessation: I smoked for 7 years. I took this medicine and stopped smoking cold turkey and haven't thought of it since.
