Indication For the treatment of depression.
Pharmacology Similar to protriptyline, nortriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant of the dibenzocycloheptene type and is the active metabolite of amitriptyline.
Mechanism of Action It is believed that nortriptyline either inhibits the reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin at the neuronal membrane or acts at beta-adrenergic receptors. Tricyclic antidepressants do not inhibit monoamine oxidase nor do they affect dopamine reuptake.
Absorption Well absorbed from the GI tract.
Toxicity Symptoms of overdose include cardiac dysrhythmias, severe hypotension, shock, congestive heart failure, pulmonary edema, convulsions, and CNS depression, including coma. Changes in the electrocardiogram, particularly in QRS axis or width, are clinically significant indicators of tricyclic antidepressant toxicity. LD50=mg/kg(orally in rat)
Protein Binding Highly protein-bound in plasma and tissues
Biotransformation Hepatic
Half Life 16 and 90 hours
