They are among the most commonly prescribed drugs .Depression: It is a the most commonly serious disorder of
mood, ranges from mild to very serious condition Types of Depression - Two types
Unipolar Exogenous / Reactive Depression Endogenous/Major Depression (MDD) Bipolar
Antidepressant Drugs

Antidepressant Classes

2. Tricyclic Antidepressant (TCA)• Amitriptyline, Nortriptyline • Imipramine, Desipramine• Doxepine, Trimipramine

Antidepressant Classes
MAO Inhibitors Phenelzine, moclobemide Tranylcypromine Atypical Antidepressants Bupropion, nefazodone, mianserin, Trazodone, venlafaxine Mirtazepine
![Page 5: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Tricyclics
Amitryptyline Potent sedative Weight gain ++ Anticholinergic ++ Most researched 150mg / day(Therapeutic in 95%
of adults)
Clomipramine Similar side effects
to amitryptyline. Said to be best for
obsessional symptoms.
150mg / day
![Page 6: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
MOA of TCAs
Depression is due to deficiency of nor-epinephrine & serotonin
Normally action of released NE & serotonin is terminated by active reuptake into the nerve terminal from the synapse via specific transporters.
TCAs block the amine transporters (uptake pumps) for nor-epinephrine (NET) & serotonin (SERT) in brain.
Facilitation of NE & serotonin transmission ---- improves symptoms of depression .

Tricyclics
Imipramine Stimulant Anticholinergic ++ 150 mg/ day
Dothiepin Sedative Same side effects as
amitryptyline. By far and away the
most toxic antidepressant.
150 mg / day
![Page 8: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Side effects of TCA’s
antimuscarinic effects postural hypotension tachycardia, arrhythmias sedation weight gain jittery feeling sexual dysfunction (ejaculatory)

SSRI
Citalopram Few interactions
Most expensive
20 mg /day
Fluoxetine Sedation –Skin s/e
Anxiety +Cheapest
20-80 mg /day
Fluvoxamine Gut s/e + Insomnia - 200 mg /day
Paroxetine Sedation + Withdrawal problems ?
20 mg /day
Sertraline Diarrhoea 50 mg /day
![Page 10: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
SSRI
First choice in elderly.
First choice if heart disease.
First choice if suicide risk.
More expensive.
Side effects Like TCA reduce
with time. Gut problems
predominate. Flat dose response
curve – so no need to titrate dose upwards.?
![Page 11: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Duloxetine, Desvenlafaxine, Milnacipran
MOA: Inhibit Serotonin& NE reuptake at all doses by
binding to NET & SERTVenlafaxine: Potent inhibitor of serotonin reuptake & at
medium to high doses. Inhibitor of NE reuptake. Weak Dopamine re-uptake inhibitor at higher
doses.No effect on muscarinic, adrenergic or histaminic receptors.
So they are preferred over TCAs for MDD & pain syndromes.
![Page 12: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
MAOI The old ones block peripheral MAOI ( B )
and central MAOI (A) so a low tyramine diet is needed. ? Obsolete.
Moclobemide. Only MAOI-A. Special place in anxiety disorder. 300-600mg / day.
![Page 13: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Atypical antidepressants
Trazodone. Unique structure. Low cardiotoxicity, few anticholinergic side
effects. Drowsiness +. Nausea. 150 mg /day.
![Page 14: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Atypical antidepressants
Mirtazapine : Blocks 5HT2 , & presynaptic α2 receptors.Enhances release of Serotonin & NEAmoxapine: Potent Nor-Epinephrine uptake inhibitor but
mild inhibition of Serotonin reuptake. Blocks D2 receptors
Bupropion: Inhibitor of NE reuptake, Weak Inhibitor of dopamine reuptake
Maprotiline: Potent Nor-Epinephrine uptake inhibitor.

Therapeutic Uses
All are useful in Major depression, in combination with other drugs.
Bupropion is useful in ADHD Bupropion also helps in reducing craving &
attenuating the withdrawal symptoms for Nicotine in tobacco users trying to quit smoking.

Factors Affecting Lithium Cp
Impaired Renal Function Pregnancy Sodium balance Medications
Diuretics → Na depletion → Li reabsorption
Caffeine ↓ lithium levels ACE Inhibitors → ↓ GFR → increase Li

CNS Stimulants
Have predominantly stimulant effect onthe central nervous system
Convulsants and respiratory stimulants Psychomotor stimulants Hallucinogens
![Page 27: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
CONVULSANTS AND RESPIRATORY STIMULANTS
Little effect on mental function
Act mainly on the brain stem and spinal cord
Higher dosage causes convulsions
Sometimes called analeptics
![Page 28: Class antidepressants, antimaniacs, cns stimulants](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061213/5497ef99ac7959412e8b5484/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Picrotoxin
Obtained from the fishberry also blocks the action of GABA on chloride channels

Doxapram
Similar to the above drugs Bigger margin of safety between
respiratory stimulation and convulsions
Causes nausea, coughing and restlessness, which limit its usefulness
Occasionally used as an intravenous infusion in patients with acute respiratory

Theophylline (tea)Theobromine (cocoa)Caffeine
Caffeine, the most widely consumed stimulant in the
world,is found in highest concentration in coffee
Also present in tea, cola drinks, chocolatecandy, and cocoa.

Mechanism of action
Translocation of extracellular calcium
Increase in CAMP and CGMP caused by inhibition of phosphodiesterase
Blockade of adenosine receptors

Therapeutic uses:
Cocaine has a local anesthetic Applied topically as a local anesthetic
during eye, ear, nose, and throat surgery Local anesthetic action due to a block of
voltage-activated sodium channels Only local anesthetic that causes
vasoconstriction. This effect is responsible for necrosis
Perforation of the nasal septum is seen with chronic inhalation of cocaine powder
