About the Product:
Tryptomer 10mg Tablet is a tricyclic antidepressant that is used to treat various conditions, including depression, neuropathic pain, and migraine. It works by balancing certain chemicals in the brain, which helps improve mood, relieve anxiety, and reduce pain. Tryptomer may also help with sleep disturbances caused by depression or pain. While it can be effective, it may take several weeks for the full effects to be noticed, so it is important to continue the medication as prescribed.
Salt Composition/Key Ingredients:
- Amitriptyline (10mg)
How to Use:
Take Tryptomer 10mg Tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is typically recommended to take it before bedtime due to its sedative effects. The tablet can be taken with or without food. Your doctor will decide the appropriate dosage and frequency, and the dose may be gradually increased under medical supervision.
Do not stop taking this medication suddenly without consulting your doctor, as doing so can worsen your condition or cause withdrawal symptoms. Always follow your doctor’s instructions regarding how to use this medication for optimal results.

How It Works:
Tryptomer 10mg Tablet contains Amitriptyline, a tricyclic antidepressant. It works by inhibiting the reuptake of key neurotransmitters, specifically noradrenaline and serotonin, which helps increase their levels in the brain. This effect plays a crucial role in improving mood and alleviating symptoms of depression. Additionally, Amitriptyline has pain-relieving properties by blocking pain signals in the nervous system, making it effective in treating neuropathic pain (pain caused by nerve damage).
