Dear lybrate-user, It is good that you find relief with amitriptyline for IBS. I don't know the dose that you are taking. If you increase the dose to 75 mg or more, the same drug will give relief from anxiety and depression also. You may experience some side effects, but you will tolerate them in due course with improvement of quality of life.
