I've been taking Elavil 150mg tablets for the past 6 months to manage my nerve pain from neuropathy, and it's been a game-changer. I initially started taking it for depression, but my doctor switched me because I was also experiencing chronic nerve pain. It works by affecting the chemicals in your brain, so it can make you feel really sleepy, especially when you first start taking it. I take it at bedtime, which helps with the drowsiness. However, I've noticed some side effects like dry mouth, blurred vision, and constipation, which can be quite annoying. Has anyone else experienced similar issues, and how do you cope with them? I've also heard about some serious side effects, so it's important to keep an eye out for those and talk to your doctor if you notice anything unusual. If you've taken Elavil for depression, neuropathy, or migraines, I'd love to hear your experiences and any tips you have for managing the side effects.
