Re: Tricyclics+Amphetamines » anxiety_free

In reply to Tricyclics+Amphetamines, posted by anxiety_free on July 4, 2004, at 9:04:28

Amphetamines may enhance the activity of tricyclic or sympathomimetic agents; d-amphetamine with desipramine or protriptyline and possibly other tricyclics cause STRIKING AND SUSTAINED INCREASES in the concentration of d-amphetamine in the brain; cardiovascular effects can be potentiated."

See - what that sort of indicates to me (the first sentence, at least) is that the amphetamines actually potentiate the effects of the tricyclic, not vice versa. Is anyone currently on a combo of a tricyclic and amphetamines and can vouch for its effects? Or does anyone know which one potentiates which, or if they both potentiate each other?
