3 Year Old Prescribed Amitriptyline

My very overly active 3 year old had trouble sleeping and around September of 2011 I took him to a sleep specialist and she prescribed colodine. It worked great. But then he went to see a neurologist and the neurologist wasn't to happy he was on colodine and wants to take him off colodine slowly and fully take amitriptyline only. It's 10mg. What are some of the things I can expect? Will it help him sleep well and have less aggression during the day?

Amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant, but the only way to see if it helps him is to try it.
Side effects can include: nausea, dizziness, weight changes and dry mouth.
