Norpamin (desipramine)

10mg light blue
50mg light green

Desipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant. 10mg is an extremely small dose and is usually used as a starting dose. The usual range is between 50-150mg. However, it is possible that a general practicianer without this knowledge might have prescribed such a small dosage.
