I'm fast metabolizing imipramine - explain??

Posted by Lia Mason on October 1, 2002, at 14:55:46

Hi,

I'm on 150 mg of imipramine for pain and it's helping a little, not enough. I had a blood level done and the level (after 1 month at 150) was shockingly low--46 and the target is 100+ I'm going to 200 but the doc said I seem to be "dumping" the drug before it gets to my bloodstream. Has anyone heard of this? Does it mean this isn't the drug for me? I had bad side effects on nortiptyline and desipramine didn't help, so... I really need imipramine to work.

Any wisdom appreciated...

Lia
