I was prescribed Paxil but not so sure they should be taken together, even though the dose of amitriptyline is low.

October 19th, 2010 Dr. Consultation 
Ya 12 years, for headaches.I’ve been having side effects for years now and recently scary side effects. I take 100MG a day. Since I started taking them I’ve gotten these tiny red spots all over my body and they keep coming. The scary effects are anxiety, tingling around lips and fingers. My vision goes weird like I’m in a dream. I get light headed and I can’t think right. Simple things I don’t know. So I get scared and panic. I believe that all these symptoms are from the Amitriptyline. So I want off. Will it take longer like some of you?

October 9th, 2010 Dr. Consultation 
I am currently taking amitripyline for insomnia, depression and anxiety. How long do I have to take it before the effects of the drugs kick in? I’ve heard about two weeks, is this true?
Also, I take 25mg a night. Should I up the dosage or no?
What is the maximum dosage of amitriptyline someone can take?
October 4th, 2010 Dr. Consultation 
I am on 150mg at night. I have read that this is the max dosage but have seen other sites that say 175mg, 200mg and if u are hospitalized then up to 300mg (is that because u are being watched by the staff?).
Not planning on taking any more, just curious on what is right. Cheers.
Is it normal to sweat this much when taking amitriptyline?
September 29th, 2010 Dr. Consultation 
I started taking amitriptyline a while back for nerve pain, it apparently doubles an anti-depressant and about a month after i started it i started sweating, a lot. i know sweating is a side effect of the drug, but i sweat when i go to do anything and it doesnt seem normal cuz im used to barely sweating ever. just wondering if neone else has experienced the same thing or if my symptom is just severe.
