Amitriptyline Compounded Formulations

Custom-Tailored Amitriptyline Solutions for Pain, Sleep, and Mood Disorders

Amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant that is widely prescribed for the treatment of various chronic conditions beyond depression, including nerve pain, migraines, and insomnia. At King’s Pharmacy and Compounding Center, we offer customized formulations of amitriptyline that cater to patients who need specific dosages, alternate forms, or allergen-free options.

What Is Amitriptyline?

Originally developed to treat depression, amitriptyline works by increasing the levels of serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain—two neurotransmitters that help regulate mood and pain perception. Over the years, its uses have expanded to include off-label applications such as chronic pain management, fibromyalgia, and certain sleep disorders.

Common Uses for Amitriptyline

Amitriptyline is often prescribed for:

• Neuropathic pain (nerve-related pain)
• Migraine prevention
• Fibromyalgia
• Tension headaches
• Depression and anxiety
• Insomnia
• Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

Benefits of Compounded Amitriptyline

Every patient is different—and not all tolerate the commercially available versions of amitriptyline. That’s why compounding offers a more flexible, personalized approach. Our pharmacy can prepare amitriptyline in a variety of dosage strengths and forms, including:

• Oral capsules and suspensions
• Transdermal creams or gels
• Sublingual lozenges
• Allergen-free and dye-free formulas

• Patients with difficulty swallowing tablets
• Children or elderly patients needing lower doses
• Patients with sensitivities to dyes, fillers, or preservatives
• Individuals requiring topical or alternative delivery methods for chronic pain
