Hello,

Tryptomer is a drug that contains amitriptyline and that can be used to prevent headaches. This means that this drug may help headache episodes be more minor and less often.

It can actually be used for weeks to months and in some cases even years. It does have potential side effects and many patients stop it due to not tolerating it well but some patients do get good control of their headaches with this pill.

I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
