Nortriptyline Withdrawal

Updated

Hi I just started this medicine 2 weeks ago: 10 mg for 7 days then 20mg for 7 days. I had an adverse reaction to the medicine and now need to come off of it, but very worried about the withdrawal process that I’ve read about. How long does it take for this medicine to build up enough in your system to cause withdrawal symptoms? Will quitting “cold turkey” after only 2 weeks cause withdrawal symptoms?
