I have been taking 20mg of fluoxetine a day for about 3 years, for depression. I have also suffered from migraines for over 40 years. My GP recently prescribed 10mg Amitriptyline for the migraine and it seems to be working. However, I am slightly worried and wondered if it is OK to take both?

I would suggest that if you have concerns over this, you should maybe go back to your GP and express them?
