Amitriptyline is probably effective for the prevention of periodic migraine in adults. Amitriptyline is similar in efficacy to venlafaxine and topiramate but carries a higher burden of adverse effects than topiramate. [16] For many patients, even very small doses of amitriptyline are helpful, which may allow for minimization of side effects. [38]
Amitriptylinoxide (brand names Amioxid, Ambivalon, Equilibrin), or amitriptyline N-oxide, is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) which was introduced in Europe in the 1970s for the treatment of depression. [1] Amitriptylinoxide is both an analogue and metabolite of amitriptyline, and has similar effects as well as equivalent efficacy as an ...
Elavil (amitriptyline) – a tricyclic antidepressant used as a first-line treatment for neuropathic pain; Eurodin, Prosom – a benzodiazepine derivative with anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, hypnotic, sedative and skeletal muscle relaxant properties, commonly prescribed for short-term treatment of insomnia
H 1: 1.1: 15.1: 8: This receptor is at least partly responsible for the sedating effects of these three drugs and hence this combination product. Possibly also partly responsible for their weight gain liability. M 1: 12.9: 40: 1500: This is the main receptor responsible for the anticholinergic side effects mentioned above. M 3: 25.9: 50: 1848

"Amitriptyline inhibits neuronal reuptake of serotonin and noradrenaline across the synapse (node) of a neuron in the central nervous system, preventing the neuron sending the 'message' from re-absorbing the chemical signals it has made in the node; this increased availability in the synapse gives more chance to cause neurotransmission on the ...
Minitran 2-25: 2 mg Perphenazine and 25 mg Amitriptyline hydrochloride in each tablet. Minitran 4-10: 4 mg Perphenazine and 10 mg Amitriptyline hydrochloride in each tablet. Minitran 4-25: 4 mg Perphenazine and 25 mg Amitriptyline hydrochloride in each tablet. Minitran is also a pharmaceutical drug for the treatment of Angina, manufactured by 3M
The TCAs such as imipramine and amitriptyline typically prevent the reuptake of serotonin or norepinephine. It is the histaminiergic (H 1), muscarinic acetylcholinergic (M 1), and alpha adrenergic (α 1) blockade that is responsible for the side-effects of TCAs. These include somnolence and lethargy, anticholinergic side-effects, and hypotension.
