> If a trial with desipramine fails does it make sense to try nortriptyline? What is the difference between these two drugs?
Panda's and Scott's information is quite good. I actually went the other way, from nortriptyline to desipramine, as nortriptyline is my doctor's preferred tricyclic to start with. I just found nortriptyline way too sedating myself, and desipramine suited me much better, but I believe that most people would probably tolerate nortriptyline better than I do. I agree that it is definitely better for anxiety than desipramine is.Todd
