Amitriptyline and It's Effects
🌙 Common Side Effects of Amitriptyline
Think of amitriptyline as a dimmer switch for overactive nerves. It can quiet the "electrical static" of nerve pain, but while your body is adjusting, some circuits may feel a bit sleepy or dry.
Most Common Side Effects
- 😴 Drowsiness or feeling groggy (especially in the morning)
- 👄 Dry mouth
- 🚽 Constipation
- 🌀 Dizziness
- 👀 Blurred vision
- ⚖️ Weight gain or increased appetite
- 💧 Difficulty urinating
- 🧠 Brain fog or trouble concentrating
These often improve after the first 1 to 2 weeks as your body settles in, much like a ship finding its rhythm after leaving harbour.
Now while it says it improves after 1-2 weeks, what this is saying is: when the side effect does kick in, it can take that long or longer to subside.
I experience all of it except constipation and difficulty urinating, but some of it only just started weeks ago. But the eating is ridiculous. I'm at the heaviest I've ever been.
