Hi, it would be really nice if someone could share knowledge with me about nortriptyline's dosing and side effects..
I'm now at day 8.. started with 25mg, 3 days later 50mg, and yesterday I upped the dose to 75mg.
Dry mouth is bad since the beginning but it's tolerable..
Sleep has improved a tiny bit, but daytime fatigue, brainfog + anxiety increased a bit.. will this subside with time or is that already a bad sign (wrong med for me)?
Today when I tried to do my ~1hour run which I do 2-3 times a week, I noticed that my heartrate was unusually high (about 20bpm higher than normal) and so I had to stop since it went up to 170 very soon..
That's really frustrating, I now recognized that my restng heartrate is ~110bpm where it's used to be around 80bpm..Did I up the dose too fast?What intervals would you suggest?
How good is the chance that these SEs will subside with time (how long will it take approx.)?
Thanks a lot!
