What Is The Purpose Of Tryptomer?

im am suffuring for to problems, 1) Bladder irritation due to inflammation 2) Shooting pain in my penis. I underwent an endoscopy where I was diagnosed to have inflammation in my bladder, following which I was treated for with cocktail therapy. However the neither of the two problems were solved. I was advised to visit a neurologist for the shooting pain who prescribed tryptomer 25 mg. I would like to know the purpose of this medication as its side effects include me having to force my urine, memory loss, dizziness, change in libido, dry mouth, lethargy. I would like to know if there is an alternative to this medicine/treatment.

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the Tryptomer is a tricyclic anti-depressant medication containing amitryptiline which is used in variety of clinical conditions as
- Generalised anxiety disorders
- Depression
- Neuropathic pain
- Urinary disorders
As there are multiple side effects, the pros and cons of the therapy must be discussed with the treating physician before commencement of the therapy.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
