Nortriptyline is the noradrenergic metabolite of amitriptyline- so if amitriptyline was too NE- active, nortriptyline would be something you'd want to stay as far as possible from. The same goes for Strattera and Wellbutrin. Do you know that clonidine is sometimes used for ADD? You may have the right idea with the NE- antagonists. Clonidine would also probably help with anxiety and irritability. Seems bizarre that NE-agonists and NE-antagonists could help with the same psychiatric problem, but why not make the best of it?
