Hi Marion

Nortriptyline is a similar drug to Ami that is also prescribed for pain. I was prescribed it recently by a neurologist but haven't taken it yet.

Whether it will be too similar to the Ami to prevent your side effects I don't know. But it is probably the closest alternative.

May I ask you how long you had to take the Ami before it helped your pain? And also, how long has it been keeping you pain in check?

I hope you find something that works just as well.
