Aventyl (active ingredient: nortriptyline) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:

  1. Depression: Aventyl is used for the treatment of depression in adults.
  2. Chronic Pain: It is also indicated for the relief of symptoms of chronic pain conditions, including neuropathic pain.

Aventyl belongs to a class of drugs known as tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs), which work by affecting the balance of certain natural chemicals (neurotransmitters) in the brain.

Aventyl is a medication that comes in tablet form and is taken by mouth as prescribed by your doctor, usually between 1 to 4 times daily. Your medical condition and response to treatment will determine the accurate dosage, and to reduce the risk of side effects like dry mouth and dizziness, your doctor may direct you to start with a low dose and gradually increase it.

Take Aventyl regularly to get the maximum benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time(s) each day. Do not alter your dose, frequency, or duration of use without consulting your doctor, as your condition may not improve faster, and your risk of side effects may increase.

The recommended adult dose ranges from 30 mg to 150 mg daily in divided doses. The usual adult starting dose is 25 mg 3 or 4 times daily. The dosage can be increased until the desired effect is achieved.
