Variable: Doses of amitriptylene can vary, depending on the patient and other medications being taken too. I see that you're also taking Aripiprazole and mirtazepine, according to other information you supplied. Not knowing these other dosages, i suggest you talk with your own prescribing physician about an appropriate dose of amtriptylene in your case. Some do well with as little as 10-25mg.

It's relative and : Each individual has different response to the meds. Dose may vary from 10, 25, 50 up to 200 mg per dose. Take care and sleep tight! http://www.m.webmd.com/sleep-disorders/alternative_treatments_for_insomnia. http://www.well.com/~mick/insomnia/ http://www.Rxlist.Com/elavil-drug.Htm.
