even though you were on low dose you may need to dose down from amitriptiline. i took low dose for about 3 months several years ago and i did dose myself down. just spread out your doses. add an extra hour or two or take when symptoms begin and spread it out farther and farther until you can stop.
when stopping amitrityline no matter how small the dose should it be done via a weaning process? . i began taking amitriptyline over 30 years ago for headaches. i also take lexapro for sad. my doctor recently recommended i stop the amitriptyline. he stated it was such a low dose i did not need to do so via a weaning process. after about 3-4 days without any dose i am now having daily headaches and nausea. i am wondering if i should do this by deceasing my dose gradually.
