Ok, but I'm just struck by the language of that PI.
"STRIKING AND SUSTAINED INCREASES in the concentration of d-amphetamine in the brain;"

I mean, this sounds like it should be major news... that a little (or more than a little) nortryptiline or some other TCI could have such a dramatic effect in boosting response to amphetamine. Yeah I know SSRIs and others are sometimes used to help amphetamine treatment, but STRIKING AND SUSTAINED INCREASEs?? I mean, this should be more than just a "by the way" comment. I just don't get it. It sounds like they're saying Tricyclics have a huge augmenting effect on amphetamines! It should be BIG NEWS, should it not?
