> Interesting.. I gotta look up imipramine.. never heard of that one (at least by that name).
I think it's branded as deprenil or topfranil in the US. It was the first tricyclic discovered way back in the '50s. It has a dual action, slightly favouring norepinephrine over serotonin. Works for some but not me sadly! Notorious for inducing psychosis though, so might trigger mania.
