Bad withdrawal symptoms amitriptyline for neuralgia.tapered from 75mg - 65.first 2 nights, ok. 3rd night - panic, nausea, faint. can diazepam help?

Elavil (amitriptyline): 10 mg less from 75 mg makes little to no difference. You do not need valium. You need to see your psychiatrist.

See your doctor: withdrawal from going from 75 mg to 65 mg (not sure how you did that on the available dosing forms, but perhaps in the UK it comes in more forms than in US) should NOT be that much of a problem, and I would be concerned that something else is going on. I suggest either talking to your physician immediately, or going back up to the dose at which you weren't having problems before trying to taper.
