Amitriptyline CAN be taken every day for extended lengths of time. It is an older tricyclic antidepressant that also works for nerve pain. I've been on 50 mg. at night for almost 5 yrs. I have had good results helping me fall asleep, and it helps my headaches and facial numbness feeling. That dopey daytime feeling went away with time.
