Guest guest Posted March 9, 2000 Report Share Posted March 9, 2000 Hi Dimitrios, I am not a doctor, and I was only sharing what worked best for me with the amitriptyline. Also, medications are prescribed differently sometimes for men and women and according to height and weight and also the need for the medication. So, I cannot say what is best, that is something you and your doctor would need to talk about.
