Doctors are perhaps concerned with liability (i.e. TCAs are more lethal in overdose) and / or compliance than they are about effectiveness.
I would agree that amitriptyline or imipramine are probably the most effective (perhaps alongside the TCAs), but the effectiveness is offset by a higher dropout rate. In terms of improving the depression itself, amtitriptyline is effective.
