Description of key information

Symptoms of overdose/poisoning may include the following: hypothermia, respiratory depression, seizures, abnormal tendon reflexes, disorientation, agitation, myoclonic jerks, coma, pyramidal signs, arrhythmias, bundle branch block, cardiac arrest, hypotension, circulatory collapse, mydriasis, blurred vision, tachycardia, vasodilation, urinary retention, decreased gastrointestinal motility, decreased bronchial secretions, and dry mucous membranes and skin. A study on children showed that initial symptoms and signs of acute amitriptyline intoxication appeared severe, but they disappeared with only supportive care required in most children except for cases that ingested high doses of drug within a few days.
