"Soon after scientists developed tricyclic antidepressants, another group of chemicals very different from the tricyclics rolled out of the laboratory—the monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors. These new drugs affected the same neurotransmitters (serotonin and norepinephrine) that the tricyclics did, but they also affected dopamine"
I thought the MAO inhibitors were the first class of antidepressants to be introduced.
