Suggest Treatment For Depression And Facial Pain
I have been taking amitriptyline (200mg/da) for some time. It is for depression that has arisen from ayptical facial pain. The facial pain is another animal but suffice to say I have tried just about everything with no success. So, about a year ago another pain doc recommends Equetro (800mg/day) for pain. I didn t get any warning about potential interactions with amitriptyline. Yesterday a lady from my insurance company called to talk about the drugs I have been taking and she alters me to the possible interaction. It appears mixing the 2 results in dimished effects of Amitriptyline. Nothing said about effects of equetro. Recommendations?
