> Thinking about this a little bit more, and comparing the pharmacological profile of maprotiline to that of nortriptyline, I question if there's really that much difference between the two. Since you are already on a hefty dose of nortriptyline, you may want to consider a different drug than maprotiline if you are looking into effecting a change in your current condition.

Tahnk you Todd, for taking the time to think about this!
The Nortriptyline is just the right thing for me. But meanwhile its effect is rather mild. So I look for something which works similar to this. I tried 175mg of Nortripyline, but I just feel "stonded" on that. It seems the inverse U shaped dose response curve of Nortripyline is true.
BTW, Nortriptyline is the "TCA" of choice for parkinson accompanied despression...
And about Doxepine. I am quite confused about your quote. All abstracts say its primarily a noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor. I wonder if this is true or not. anyway.I think I will give Maprotiline a try. I can go back to doxepine at anytime...
thank you
