amitriptyline and Encephalopathy, Toxic

amitriptyline has been researched along with Encephalopathy, Toxic in 5 studies

Amitriptyline: Tricyclic antidepressant with anticholinergic and sedative properties. It appears to prevent the re-uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin at nerve terminals, thus potentiating the action of these neurotransmitters. Amitriptyline also appears to antagonize cholinergic and alpha-1 adrenergic responses to bioactive amines.
amitriptyline : An organic tricyclic compound that is 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d][7]annulene substituted by a 3-(dimethylamino)propylidene group at position 5.

Trial Outcomes

Change in Average Daily Peripheral Neuropathy Intensity Score From Baseline to Week 6 in Patients Treated With Amitriptyline and Ketamine Hydrochloride vs Placebo

"Cancer survivors who completed chemotherapy at least 1 month prior and had Chemotherapy Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN) (greater than or equal to 4 out of 10) were enrolled. CIPN was assessed using average scores from a 7-day daily diary that asks patients to rate the average pain, numbness, or tingling in their hands and feet over the past 24 hours on an 11-point numeric rating scale at baseline and 6 weeks post intervention. CIPN ranges from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst possible pain)." (NCT00471445)
