Hi & Welcome to HCM.
I appreciate your concern for the efficacy of Tryptomer as a medication to lower high BP.
Tryptomer (Amitriptyline) is a tricyclic antidepressant used in the treatment of major depression, painful nerve conditions, & night time bed wetting (in children).
Thus it is mainly prescribed for the above condition & it can cause a low BP as its side effect.
Hope to have answered your query.
