Nortriptyline hydrochloride (Pamelor^®) is a prescription medication that is approved to treat depression. The medication is thought to work by allowing certain chemicals of the brain (serotonin and norepinephrine) to remain in the brain for a longer period of time. Possible side effects of the medication include dizziness, drowsiness, and a dry mouth. If the side effects become too bothersome or if the medication does not work as well as intended, there are other alternatives to nortriptyline, including other depression medications and therapy.
