> trimipramine is not metabolized to imipramine. But it might induce tachycardia because it is antimuscarinic. It's similar to doxepin, except it has virtually no effect on NE or 5-HT, and resembles an atypical antipsychotic in some ways, including D2 receptor antagonism.

Thanks. I'll soon see if I can tolerate the doxepin still. If not, I probably couldn't take trimipramine either (at least not without a beta blocker).One last question, trimipramine's D2 receptor antagonism would be a good thing for me, wouldn't it? (esp. if I'm taking an SSRI?)
