Question for Scott (if you have time) » SLS

Hi Scott,

Just one last thing, if you have time and don't mind.

I had a look at the chart you created on psychtropic meds (great chart, by the way. I refer to it often). I noticed that Wellbutrin and Zoloft appear to be equal in terms of Dopamine reuptake or inhibition. I also read in a couple of places that Wellbutrin actually only has a mild effect on dopamine and norepiphedrine. Yet, Nortriptyline seems to be quite a potent or at least be a significant inhibitor of norepiphedrine. So, the question I have is that is Nortriptyline less activating than Wellbutrin because of its other mechanisms, which result in certain side effects? Also, which of the two, Wellbutrin or Nortriptyline, do you think would be better for melancholic depression with adhedonia?

Just wanted to keep myself informed in case I find the Wellbutrin/Zoloft combination continues to cause too much nausea.

Thanks.

Tamara
