"I was taking amitriptyline for a month and wondered if nortriptyline would have fewer symptoms. Since amitriptyline makes me constantly tired and reduces my sense of taste. So I talked to my doctor and was given 25 mg capsules to take once a day. At first, I felt a bit disoriented, almost as if it was the opposite of something like Adderall. But I wasn't tired all day and my taste buds returned to me in full, so whatever, it seemed better the first few days. After nearly a week in, my tinnitus' screeching was becoming intolerably loud and made it harder and harder to fall asleep. Some days it would take more than an hour or maybe two simply to fall asleep. Within a few days, it was becoming obvious it not only made it worse. Also, while my sense of taste wasn't changed, there was something about the taste of almost anything that wasn't satisfying. After two weeks, I went back on ami. Amitriptyline might only help a bit, but at least it does something to make tinnitus marginally more sufferable."

"This medication is great for tinnitus. This medicine does not cure it, but continued use will slow down the pitch. It was prescribed for vestibular migraine, and it has helped me a lot."
