A member asked:

I've been eating amitriptyline hcl-10g tab, for about a month, and i've sleep for more than 12hrs per day, its good?and it okay to eat the tab again?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

10 mg ?: Assume its 10mg which is a very small dose--it is sedative--12 hrs sleep is too much--i'd discuss with doc--what are you trying to accomplish with amitriptyline? Is there something else that doesn't make you sleep 12 hrs if that's what's doing it.
