On average, how long will amitriptyline get in your system for pain relief?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
4-8 hours: Typically it will take 4-8 hours to obtain peak concentrations in your system after taking amitriptyline. That being said, if the dose is low you may not notice a clinical effect (discuss with your prescribing physician).
