Amytripyline Different Pill Form...is It An Issue??
Updated
Samantha Says:
I have been taking amytripyline for about six months for fybromyalgia pain. My doctor prescribed me the little blue pills in 25mg of which I take six. Only side effects have been dry mouth and slight constipation at times. My pain was gone within a week of taking it and I could not have been happier because I could now function and do things like play with my child and clean house. Well yesterday I cleaned house all day and felt fine. My prescription needed a refill so I sent my daughter to pick it up for me. When I got the script I was no longer the blue pills, instead one 150mg pink pill. I took it and went to bed, no big deal. This morning I feel like a truck ran over me. I have not hurt like this in a while!! So my question is this....has anyone else experienced this with the different forms?

Well, since it is a generic, there can be fluctuations in the amount of the active ingredient. For most people it isn't a problem, but you may be sensitive to such changes and if you're getting a bit of a lower dose than you were, that may explain the issue.

The pharmacy likely though it would be helpful if you only had to take one tablet, rather than 6.
However, you may want to contact them and let them know that it isn't working.
How are you feeling today?
