Gene Information

General description

Protriptyline is a second generation tricyclic antidepressant (TCA) marketed under the trade name Vivactil®, for treatment of major depression and ADHD. This certified Snap-N-Spike® solution is applicable for use in LC/MS or GC/MS applications in clinical toxicology, forensic analysis, or urine drug testing. Protriptyline is unique among TCAs, since it has energizing, rather than sedating effects.

1. The potential of various fungi to metabolize protriptyline (an extensively used antidepressant) was studied to investigate similarities between mammalian and microbial metabolism. 2. Metabolites produced by each organism were isolated by high-pressure liquid chromatography and identified by nuclear magnetic

To evaluate the potential benefit of the tricyclic antidepressant, protriptyline, in the treatment of children and adolescents with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). All clinic patients in an outpatient pediatric psychopharmacology unit treated with protriptyline for ADHD were monitored for response
