What Causes Red Rashes On The Back, Chest And Legs After Taking Amitriptyline 100 Mg?
If I am taking 100 mg. of amitriptyline at bedtime and have had the occasional drink of alcohol and it has been okay up to now, I drank 4 drinks on Sunday and now I am experiencing a full out red angry looking body rash on my back, chest, upper arms and lower legs, is this an allergic reaction. It showed up Tuesday night when it started.

HI
This is definitely an allergic reaction but it may not be from either the amitriptyline nore the alcohol
You need to see a doctor for a cortisone injection to take care of the problem
