In reply to Re: Desipramine (Norpramin) best TCA for ADHD?, posted by undopaminergic on August 12, 2022, at 12:13:46
I have never taken desipramine myself, so I can't compare. I have taken nortriptyline which was decent. Desipramine is supposedly less sedating and a bit cleaner than nortriptyline. The advantage over atomoxetine is that it is effective for depression where atomoxetine hasn't really proven itself in that regard. However, there are quite a few reports of kids just randomly dying of heart attacks and stuff on desipramine, so I think it has fallen into disuse.
