Amitriptyline hydrochloride 
AMITROPH is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) medication that is primarily used for the treatment of depression. However, it is also prescribed for other conditions, including neuropathic pain, migraine prevention, and certain anxiety disorders.
Here are some important points about AMITROPH :
Mechanism of action: AMITROPH works by inhibiting the reuptake of certain neurotransmitters, including serotonin and norepinephrine, in the brain. By increasing the levels of these neurotransmitters, it helps to regulate mood and alleviate depressive symptoms.
Indications: AMITROPH is primarily used for the treatment of major depressive disorder (depression) in adults. It may also be prescribed off-label for other conditions such as neuropathic pain (e.g., diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia), prophylaxis of migraines, and certain anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder and panic disorder.
Dosage and administration: AMITROPH is available in tablet or oral solution forms. The dosage and dosing frequency will depend on the specific condition being treated, the individual's response, and other factors such as age and overall health. It is typically taken once daily, usually at bedtime, due to its sedating effects. The dosage should be carefully determined and adjusted by a healthcare professional.
Side effects: Common side effects of AMITROPH may include drowsiness, dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, weight gain, and dizziness. These side effects are generally mild and may improve over time. However, it can also cause more severe side effects, such as changes in heart rhythm, confusion, or allergic reactions. It is important to report any concerning or persistent side effects to your healthcare provider.
Precautions and interactions: AMITROPH may interact with other medications, including other antidepressants, antipsychotics, and certain medications that affect heart rhythm. It should not be taken in combination with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) or within 14 days of discontinuing MAOI treatment. It is important to inform your healthcare provider about all the medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking to prevent potential interactions.
Treatment duration: The duration of AMITROPH treatment varies depending on the condition being treated and individual response. In the case of depression, it is often recommended to continue treatment for at least 6 to 12 months after symptom improvement to prevent relapse. Your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate duration for your specific situation.
