According to preclinical studies, amitriptyline has shown significant anti-inflammatory properties in various animal models. While not a traditional anti-inflammatory drug, the answer to 'Does amitriptyline get rid of inflammation?' is more complex, as it appears to modulate inflammation through pathways distinct from common anti-inflammatory medications.

According to a 2023 study, ivermectin significantly reduced joint inflammation and destruction in a rat model of rheumatoid arthritis, with effects comparable to a potent corticosteroid. This finding and others in animal models have generated interest in whether ivermectin helps with inflammation and arthritis in humans, but robust clinical evidence remains absent.
