Is Amitriptyline Safe For Vaginal Itching?
I am 70 years old and have vulvar itching. I take blood pressure Medes regularly. The vulvar clinic at university of Michigan wants me to try amytipline for the itching. I am concerned by what I read about side effects and precautions. Not sure I should take this med.

Hi,
You may be feeling itching due to vaginal atrophy. You can use vaginal wash 6.8 pH to wash twice daily your private parts. You can also use emollient locally.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
