> I'm currently taking Tofranil PM (Imipramine), and its really bothering my bladder and prostate and I may discontinue soon. Is Desipramine (the metabolite of Imipramine) really worth trying and have less side effects? From what I know, it has slightly less side effects, but some say not as effective as its parent drug.
I think it is certainly worth trying a different tricyclic. Desipramine is one possibility, there's also nortriptyline and various others. You may have to try a few differe TCAs to find out which one suits you best.
