I forgot to mention the good news vis a vis
my friend - funny it's easier to harp on
the bad news.One of my worries is now gone, because
the switch to imipramine (at a higher dose)
has made a miraculous difference in
clinical depression. Either the desipramine
dose was too low to have the equivalent
imipramine effect, or it would become too
toxic at an equivalent dose. Anyway imipramine
works at the average dose (200mg i think)
and it's her own damn fault for not following
the dr.'s advice and lowering it.On the other hand, these old warhorse drugs
do have strong side effects. Maybe the newer
ones have less side effects but less efficacy
too for clinical depression.Squiggles
