> I thought desimpramine had nearly the same effect as tofranil . I am wrong here ?

Yep. Desipramine is a metabolite of Tofranil (imipramine). Imipramine is not only an NRI but also a strong SRI. Desipramine lacks affinity for serotonin transporters.

Current meds: 10mg melitracene + 0.5mg flupentixol; sertraline 100mg; amitriptyline 25mg; gabapentin (Neurontin) 300mg; melatonin 0.3mg. PRN: diazepam (Valium) 2.5-5mg.
