Amitriptyline enjoys the title of being one of the earliest antidepressant medications to be introduced into the market around 60 years ago. Despite decades of use, very little research has been dedicated to its potential to cause addiction. For a long time, amitriptyline was considered a non-addictive drug that could be quickly started and stopped as and when convenient. Recent research, however, has shed more light on its tolerance-inducing properties and strong addiction potential.
Though uncommon, amitriptyline addiction is real and capable of inducing a withdrawal. This withdrawal can be so intense that it may force individuals to keep using amitriptyline even when they no longer require it. However, due to the dangerous consequences associated with its prolonged use, such a practice is not recommended.
If you or a loved one have been using amitriptyline for some time and wish to let go without undergoing an amitriptyline withdrawal, give this article a read.
