Has anyone been prescribed by their doctor 'Endep'- amitriptyline hydrochloride. I have been prescribed it years ago for my migraines - however my mum won't take it even though her doctor has prescribed it for her Fibro. Am just wanting to see if anyone know's or is using it for their treatment.

" I have never heard of it and I have had migraines pretty bad since I was 8. I am now 34. I am going to ask my DR about it, especially if it helps both fibro and migraines! Thank you! You might want to post this on the general discussion board to get more responses. "

" I was prescribed amitriptyline several years ago but under the brand name Elavil for sleep. I was unable to take it. It caused heart palpitations and high blood pressure for me, but a lot of people have had great success with it. "
