I emidiatly have vivid nightmares scare the c... Out of me. Other than the nightmares it helps | M | 47 | 1 days 35 | 1/27/2016 | 1 | Nerve pain | Dizzy, nausea, nightmares, anxiety, fast heart rate, dry throat. | I took this medicine an hour before bed, it made me feel extremely drowsy so I laid down for bed. About 4 hours later I was awake, sweaty, heart pounding, dry throat and completely panicking. It was an horrific feeling! I got up and drank hot water with honey then tried to lay back down but couldn't so I paced until I was exhausted and finally laid back down and fell asleep, woke up 2 more times then finally just got up about 530. Thought I'd feel better but no...I was completely nauseous, horrible headache and still having anxiety attacks. Needless to say that was the end of Nortriptyline for me. | F | 27 | 1 days 10 mg | 10/18/2016 | 1 | Anxiety/ depression | Panic attack , headache, crying for no reason | I was prescribed this for anxiety and depression. I felt calmer when first taking it and helped me sleep. Didn't have my normal fit of anger in the morning, just kind of felt blah. I got to work about 12 hrs after taking the med and I was okay got everything done and opened the store, started to feel sad for no reason it wasn't a bad day and I was working with good crew. I sat down in office and just broke down crying and couldn't stop so bad I hyperventilated and was taken to hospital for them to tell me it wasn't the med that caused it. Every other day I've been fine just normal anxiety. I don't even want to touch this med again after 1 dose. | F | 28 | 1 days 10mg | 2/7/2017 | 1 | Diabetic Neuropathy | I cant taste anything. My mouth is sorta numb. I have insomnia now and it caused my blood sugar to crash. | This pill can officially die in a fire! | M | 40 | 1 days 25 1X day | 5/13/2015 | 1 | ibs | Throat itched,could not sleep, anxiety | F | 48 | 1 days 25 mg | 3/17/2012 | 1 | pain | The first night I took it I barely slept. The next day I was tired all day and depressed. I was very sleepy. My m2outh was extremly dry. I think i will take half the dose and see if my body adjust. If it doesnt, I will quit taking it. | 62 | 1 days 25mg | 4/2/2013 | 2 | depression, adhd | Was suppose to increase dosage to 75mg, but after 2 days at 25mg, I was shaking, extremities were twitching, heart was racing, chest physically hurt. Also experienced blurry vision, minor ear ringing, and I felt like I was tripping. | It 180'ed my adhd, in the sense that I was incapable of shifting my focus. My ability to remember finite details became remarkable while taking it, but I had no concept of time and was incapable of processing or thinking about... anything, I was only able to recall information. This is the exact opposite of how my brain typically functions. | M | 27 | 2 days 25 MG 1X day | 6/6/2010 | 1 | Anxiety, panic disorder, migraines | I sleep 20 hours out of 24. I am a zombie! Can't move, can't function, nautious. Sleep all the time. Can't stay awake. Very irritable , angry and cry easily. | F | 38 | 2 days 50 mg | 7/5/2013 | 1 | back pain | No sleep. Angry with family. Bad dream. Bad drug. | Should be banned. | M | 42 | 2 days 20 mg | 5/30/2015 | 3 | Car accident-whiplash-chronic neck | It's only been 3 days but I am soooo tired. And unaware. I guess I have to get used to it, because all in all it works. My pain is mitigated, my anxiety is gone. I am very sensitive to drugs and can feel a difference already. | Chronic neck pain for 2 years, sleeplessness, due to side whiplash. Hit from side by 50mph truck. Have tried everything, new dr wants to wean me off all pain meds by putting me on this one. I admit, I am sleeping sooooo well, and pain is better. But I feel so out of it and sleepy all the time. I have children and a huge house to take care of, it's impossible. Will give it two weeks before I make a decision about continuing. | F | 43 | 3 days | 9/12/2007 | 1 | Pain | Given this for pain due to multiple sclerosis. It is a horrible drug that gave my the worst headache of my life. 24 hours and my head feels like it's going to burst. Also, extreme tiredness but unable to fall asleep. Hangover like feeling. Never again. | F | 43 | 3 days 10 mg 1X day | 1/14/2021 | 1 | migraine prevention | dry mouth, blurred vision, tingling and numbness on legs, afwul leg weakness- felt like I can't walk, muscle spasms and muscle pain. Absolutely horrible side effects | F | 20 | 3 days 10mg 1X day | 5/4/2021 | 3 | back pain | woke up at night with a pounding heart, mild high-pitched ringing in the ears | Not sure if this was related, but 3 days after I first started the Nortriptylene I had had a huge floater break loose in one of my eyes that really messed with my vision for a while.

Not just like a little I puke my brains out! Last night was the only night I didn't . So I tried taking anti vomit tab and it worked a little the night before. As for tonight it wasn't more than five minutes and I was vomiting. It makes my stomach cramp and I just heave until there is nothing left and then some.

Wow! I was only taking it for a few days, but had major side effects. The first two days I slept approximately 20-22 hours a day. I had hoped that this was passing and I was through the worst of the side effects, but things kept getting worse. I still had migraines every day. I also experienced intense chest pressure, chest pain, palpitations, and heart burn throughout the day. I stopped taking the medication on the 5th day when I felt reeeeeallly high. I was leaving for an anniversary vacation, driving down the highway, and suddenly felt as though I was in a video game. Nothing felt real. So scary!! It made for such an awful weekend. I was really irritable and short tempered (normally not like me at all), and my torso just felt really full and painful. I will never take this med again! | F | 28 | 5 days 10 mg 1X day | 2/22/2012 | 1 | I am lactose intolerant if you are too no amount of this medication will work !!!!
