Description

Protriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA), specifically a secondary amine, for the treatment of depression and ADHD. Unique among the TCAs, protriptyline tends to be energizing instead of sedating, used for narcolepsy to achieve a wakefulness-promoting effect.


Protriptyline Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of protriptyline, a tricyclic secondary amine with antidepressant property. Protriptyline hydrochloride blocks the re-uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin by nerve terminals, thereby increasing available norepinephrine and serotonin. Protriptyline does not block dopamine transport but may have an indirect dopamine-facilitating effect through interactions of increased peri-synaptic abundance of norepinephrine, particularly in the cerebral cortex, where adrenergic terminals exceed dopaminergic terminals. This results in elevation of mood and behavioral activity. In addition, this agent exhibits anticholinergic activity.|Tricyclic antidepressant similar in action and side effects to IMIPRAMINE. It may produce excitation.

Drug Information

Drugs that block the transport of adrenergic transmitters into axon terminals or into storage vesicles within terminals. The tricyclic antidepressants (ANTIDEPRESSIVE AGENTS, TRICYCLIC) and amphetamines are among the therapeutically important drugs that may act via inhibition of adrenergic transport. Many of these drugs also block transport of serotonin. (See all compounds classified as Adrenergic Uptake Inhibitors.)|Substances that contain a fused three-ring moiety and are used in the treatment of depression. These drugs block the uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin into axon terminals and may block some subtypes of serotonin, adrenergic, and histamine receptors. However the mechanism of their antidepressant effects is not clear because the therapeutic effects usually take weeks to develop and may reflect compensatory changes in the central nervous system. (See all compounds classified as Antidepressive Agents, Tricyclic.)
