Can Effexor and amyltriptyline be taken together?

I do not recommend taking one of the older tricyclics along with an SSRI. Amitryptyline is extremely drying and sedating. If you are over 60 you should never take a tricyclic antidepressant.Taking two medicines which have sedating effects could make you pass out or become confused. The drying effects of amitryptiline can result in dizziness, disorientation, difficulty urinating, and severe headache.
