Dr. William Newton answered

Specializes in Pain Management

They all can: Amitriptyline and Pregabalin are medications that come from classes of medications that can be used to treat depression and mood disorders as well as pain. I would put more emphasis on these rather than the methadone. All in combination can be your issue.
