Hi Z,
>Now why isn't Prothiaden out in America yet?
I don't think it was ever marketed in America. I don't know why. Not long ago, it was the most popular AD in England, a lot of people still take it (well, the generic, hardly anyone takes Prothiaden). GPs are being discouraged from prescribing Prothiaden at the moment, it's very toxic in overdose.
You'll never see Prothiaden in the US Zeugie, it's just too old..... and much too cheap.
At the pharmacy, when we buy dothiepin from the wholesaler, a box of 28 dothiepin 25mg caps costs us about £1.00
>And it does have one of the best names of any AD
I like it too :-)
