Just prescribed elavil (amitriptyline) for ibs and cronic ruq nerve pain. it is to strong even at lowest dose. can i cut it in half? only been taking 3 days at bed.

Elavil (amitriptyline): Please call your doctor about your difficulties with elavil, since you haven't shared how much you're taking. The lowest dose made is 10mg, and i don't know any that are scored (making them easier to cut in half) anyway. You may end up with a crumbled pill. Your doctor will want to understand what you mean by "too strong, " so s/he can adjust or change. Another option might be low-dose sinequan (doxepin).
