A member asked:

Diagnosed with mononucleosis 2 months ago; consistent, serious, vestibular migraines along with intermittent muscle achiness. amitriptyline prescribed?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Amitriptyline: Amitriptyline is frequently prescribed for the alleviation of migraine headaches. In your case it sounds like it was used for that purpose rather than for depression. Any further questions you have about that should be directed to your treating physician. Best wishes.
