Hi Z,
>I wonder if protriptyline might be the answer.
Protriptyline tends to cause a lot of side effects. Anyway, it doesn't have any clear advantages over desipramine. It is sometimes claimed that protriptyline is 'stimulating' in a way that desipramine is not- I am convinced that this is a myth. Protriptyline is potently anticholinergic, cardiovascular side effects such as hypotension are common and it sometimes causes a rash. Basically, I'd stay away from it!! There are better drugs available!
Best Regards,
Ed.
