Hy Brainbeard,
On paper yes, desmethylclomipramine looks strong, but at higher doses of clomipramine, the sedation and somnolence feel stronger.
I have used to follow a small test in order to qualify a noradrenergic meds regarding their potency: because i train regularly for over a decade, I know my body and my unmedicated muscular tonus.On clomipramine on any dosage over 50 mg/day, I feel weak, trembling, lazy, so not much norepinephrine going on.Au contraire, modest doses of maprotiline added to clomipramine, reversed the weakness, motivation or drive.The same when I added wellbutrin or high doses remeron to clomi.Sometimes I prefer to let alone the studies and abstracts(which i read regularly) and listen to my body.> I haven't seen numbers for maprotiline.
Me neither.It seems it's too old to present interest :(.regards
