> I'd go for lofepramine (Gamanil). It is a non-sedating TCA which usually has mild side effects. I used to take it myself.
What do you use as a source of information regarding which drugs are available in the BNF?
I think lofepramine is an ideal first choice of TCA in this case because desipramine can be alerting. However, I was wondering whether or not nortriptyline was also available. What about maprotiline? I know maprotiline can be nasty in terms of side effects, but it is one of the drugs I have not yet tried.
