> It is folly to try to predict in advance whether urinary retention is anticholinergic or adrenergic, or some complicated combination of both. Therefore, ruling out any potential medication based on theory won't work. All the potential candidates have to be tried. Just because a med has strong anticholinergic activity doesn't mean that is causing the urinary retention.

Ok, I was just thinking that the blood pressure could become very low, followed by more severe ortostatic hypotension and complete black-out. Since the TCAs I'm considering (clomipramine) already have this property. Any thoughts?
