In reply to Nortriptyline (Pamelor) dosage ???, posted by SLS on March 23, 2002, at 11:50:24

The most common effective dose of nortriptyline is 75 mg per day. This dose most often is taken once a day at bedtime.
The blood levels associated with this dose usually fall within the therapeutic range of 50 to 150 ng/ml when measured exactly 12-hours (plus or minus 30 minutes) following the last dose.
Occasionally people do best on doses as low as 50 mg/day and I have occasionally run across patients who required over 200 mg/day to achieve a therapeutic blood level and a good clinical response.
