Tofranil

This page contains recent news articles, when available, and an overview of Tofranil but does not offer medical advice. You should contact your physician with regard to any health issues or concerns.


Overview:

Tofranil
(when available)

Pharmacology and use:
Protriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant. It was thought that tricylic antidepressants work by inhibiting the re-uptake of the neurotransmitters norepinephrine and serotonin by nerve cells. However, this response occurs immediately, yet mood does not lift for around two weeks. It is now thought that changes occur in receptor sensitivity in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus. The hippocampus is part of the limbic system, a part of the brain involved in emotions. Presynaptic receptors are affected: a1 and b1 receptors are sensitized, a2 receptors are desensitised (leading to increased noradrenaline production). Tricyclics are also known as effective analgesics for different types of pain, especially neuropathic or neuralgic pain. A precise mechanism for their analgesic action is unknown, but it is thought that they modulate anti-pain opioid systems in the CNS via an indirect serotonergic route. They are also effective in migraine prophylaxis, but not in abortion of acute migraine attack. The mechanism of their anti-migraine action is also thought to be serotonergic. For the treatment of depression and obsessive-compulsive disorders

Mechanism Of Action:
Protriptyline acts by decreasing the reuptake of norepinephrine and serotonin (5-HT).
