What kind of pain does amitriptyline treat?
Wikipedia Amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant that is widely used to treat
chronic neuropathic pain (pain due to nerve damage)
It is recommended as a first line treatment in many guidelines.
Neuropathic pain can be treated with antidepressant drugs in doses below those at which the drugs act as antidepressants. 6 Jul 2015
