A member asked:
I've had post concussion syndrome for 7 months taking 20mg of nortriptoline daily for headaches drank 2 coolers tonight and a beer can this cause dama?

Not likely: A small amount of alcohol such as this should not cause any major issues. Avoid large amounts of alcohol, because they can cause excess sedation with the nortriptyline. Hope this helps!
