Nortriptyline is indicated for use in the treatment of depression (FDA-approved). It can also be used off-label for conditions such as chronic pain, diabetic neuropathy, myofascial pain, orofacial pain, and postherpetic neuralgia. Nortriptyline has also shown to be useful in patients trying to quit smoking. Nortriptyline is not FDA approved for use in children. This activity covers nortryptyline’s indications, mechanism of action, pharmacology, administration, adverse event profiles, eligible patient populations, contraindications, and monitoring, and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the management of depression and other diseases with nortriptyline therapy.
