Hi I have tried amitriptyline and I found it made me so sleepy and drowsy so couldn’t function properly while taking it ! I don’t think you should be having increased heart rate! Need to check with your doctor!

I tried it for about 3 months,didn’t really help with sleep & next day fatigue. Then weight gain

Yes, I'm currently taking Amitriptyline 75mg. I only take 50mg at bedtime. This medication will make you very drowsy. If you're taking this during the day with other meds you will be in slow motion. Try taking it at night. 💜

Elavil an anti depressant i believe. Dr is trying it to reduce my pain.

May I ask what is amitriptyline ? I mean what is it used for if you don't mind me asking ☺️
