1 | Insomnia | Took 1 at first but noticed I still had a lot of energy after 2 hours of taking it so I took the second one as directed and still NO SLEEP!!!! The next day my left eye was twitching non stop & that was very very irritating!!! This is day 2 and my eye is still twitching & I haven't taken anymore since that first day! I hope the twitching stops soon! About to flush the remaining pills down the toilet!!!!! So don't take unless you're looking forward to unexpected twitching for days at a time!!!!!! Ijs | Don't do it ....try some over the counter meds first if you are wanting sleep! IJS | F | 33 | 1 days 10 | 4/11/2016 | 3 | For Back pain, Sleep, mood elivater | Penis died, Planning Funeral. Horrible dry mouth, Depressing dreams. causes hunger, and weight gain, but not as much as trazadone. Does help imsomnia, but still a little sleepy in morning. I have six compressed nerves and spinal synosis. Can't see any benefit for back pain. I'm thinking of discontinuig this med. Dry mouth driving me nuts. I still have dry mouth only minutes after drinking a pint of water. | As far as I can tell, most all of these nerve blocking meds have similar side effects. | M | 66 | 3 months 100Mg 1X day | 5/26/2010 | 5 | lower back pain and sciatica | dry mouth | After slowly raising dosage to 100mg over 3 months, Nortriptyline has diminished my lower back pain from a constant excruciating pain to a manageable state where I can almost eliminate the use of oxycontin. While I was reluctant to keep on taking it, I am now glad that my pain specialist insisted. I am now at 125 mg daily and functioning almost like before the on start of my back problems. | M | 50 | 4 months 125 1X day | 3/5/2011 | 1 | Depression | Severe constipation; weight gain (approx 10kg); no alleviation in symptoms; malaise/ chronic fatigue; no libido; felt worse. | Allegron (brand name) only made me feel worse. It made me fat and gave me bowel problems. | F | 37 | 9 months 30mg 2X day | 2/3/2012 | 5 | Fibromyalgia/depression | Weight gain, cravings, fatique/tired during the day | For 3 years this drug as given me an excellant nights sleep most every single night. But I'm not wanting to be hungry and tired during the day. I'm considering cutting back to every other day. See how that goes. But it does do what it says it will...for me anyways! | F | 48 | 3 years 10MG 1X day | 5/6/2010 |
