A member asked:
Been taking nortriptyline 50mg for 3 days and suffering from dry bitter mouth. will this side effect go away and how long will it last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nortriptylene: Dry mouth is one of the side effects of most tricyclic antidepressants, including nortriptylene. Some of this may dissipate over the next couple of weeks or so. You can sip water; suck on ice chips; suck on sugarless candy; breathe through nose, not mouth; consider a moisturizing mouth spray. If the dry mouth continues, you'll want to be even more attentive to dental hygiene.
