A member asked:
How long does it take for nortriptyline to get out your system completely after taking the last pill? what side effects do i look for?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few days: The full therapeutic effects of this kind of antidepressant takes about 6 weeks. But the chemical changes occur rather quickly, within about 36 hours. So it should be out of your system in about a week, depending on your metabolism.
