Ami makes me into a grizzly bear over 20 mgs.) Perhaps I misread. If you don't mind, can you elaborate on trimiprimine? ANd I will do some investigating myself.

Chloe,Fachad had two good posts on it that I found:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/20020602/msgs/108686.htmlhttp://www.dr-bob.org/babble/20020525/msgs/108314.html
He also had some medline stuff on it-but I didn't catch that in the thread above.
I had read something about it a few months ago. It was a flowchart for treatment of bipolar disorder and it recommended trimipramine to treat *insomnia* I believe for breakthrough hypomania or mania in addition or instead of a benzo (I think). Somebody else might know which "flowchart" I am thinking of. You can't get generic from what I understand. It is Surmontil. I might do some more browsing about it. I am going to check the monograph on it.
Talk toya later,
Mitch
