AmitriptylineAmitriptyline (Elavil, Endep, Saroten, Sarotex, Redomex) is one of the most frequently used tricyclic antidepressants. Its effects are mediated notably by increasing serotonin and norepinephrine concentrations in the brain. However, other modes of action are likely to contribute to its antidepressant effects as well. This pharmacological profile is also why, beyond its use for treating mood disorders, it can be beneficial for the treatment of certain types of pain. It has practically no value as a recreational drug.
