Tricyclic antidepressants are moderately potent inhibitors of the plasma membrane Ca(2+)-ATPase activity measured in erythrocyte ghosts. For the calmodulin-activated activity, half-maximal inhibition was observed in the presence of 0.25 mM clomipramine. Desipramine, imipramine, and trimipramine show half-maximal inhibition in the

Trimipramine has been classified as an atypical tricyclic antidepressant, because only weak inhibitory effects on serotonin and/or noradrenaline reuptake have been found. Since some antidepressive drugs (e.g. imipramine) and other agents used in the treatment of affective disorders (e.g. carbamazepine)

1. The benzodiazepines are among the most frequently prescribed of all drugs and have been used for their anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and sedative/hypnotic properties. Since absorption rates, volumes of distribution, and elimination rates differ greatly among the benzodiazepine derivatives, each benzodiazepine

This study displayed the physiological effects the tricyclic antidepressants amitriptyline or trimipramine have on glucose homoeostasis in male Wistar rats. An insulin secreting cell line (INS-1) was also used to determine effects tricyclic antidepressants have on insulin secretion and insulin
