Co- codamol 2 tabs 4 x a day
Votarol 2 tabs 3 x a day
Amitryptiline 20 mg every night
and currently Losec/omeprazole, 20mg x1 a day

Have got the most awful dry mouth and a feeling of thirst, and a horrible taste in ym mouth as well. I wondered if it was the combination of drugs, its a whiel since I took full does of painkillers all day every day (for almost 3 weeks now)

The amitryptiline certainly will cause a dry mouth.

Amitryptiline causes dry mouth. Have you tried a pain clinic? Why are you in so much pain? (Do not answer if you feel the question is too nosey).
