Does anyone know if lofepramine itself is sedating? I know it is a pro-drug for desipramine, which is one of the less sedating TCAs, but the BNF advises that lofepramine be taken at night to aid sleep. I am worried that doxepin will cause daytime sedation because I really need something to give me motivation and energy. I'm hoping that lofepramine would provide a few hours sedation at night, then metabolize into the more energizing desipramine during the day. I did start a thread on lofepramine a few weeks ago, but nobody responded with experiences with this drug.
