Yes. I can see how you came to your conclusions. As you so often point out, tricyclics like desipramine (known as a selective NE reuptake inhibitor) do a great many other things pharmacologically. So really, desipramine is selective as a reuptake inhibitor of amines, but is not selective if one takes other properties into consideration.
What properties of desipramine do you think contribute to its antidepressant effect?
Thanks.
