I'm a bit late getting back to you on this, but according to the nortriptyline insert 100mg/d is the typical dose, yet you seem to regard 125mg/d as below clincal level. Did you mean 25mg/d, or do you consider 125mg/d to be a less than effective dose for depression? I would expect side effects to kick in at that level? Is that not so?Also since nortriptyline also acts on noradrenaline, is it good to combine it with Cymbalta? Might it cause agitation?
Thanks
John
