trimipramine

Trimipramine is an antidepressant with an anxiety-reducing sedative component to its action.

Trimipramine maleate (Surmontil maleate) appears to inhibit serotonin transport and norepinephrine uptake by nerve terminals. This increases available norepinephrine or serotonin and prolongs its action. Trimipramine Maleate is the maleate salt form of trimipramine, a tricyclic secondary amine of the dibenzazepine class, with an antidepressant property.

Trimipramine N-oxide, an active metabolite of the tricyclic antidepressant trimipramine, effectively inhibits human monoamine transporters for noradrenaline (hNAT), serotonin (hSERT), dopamine (hDAT), and the human organic cation transporters (hOCT1 and hOCT2), with IC50 values of 11.7, 3.59, 9.4, 9.35, and 27.4 nM, respectively. It is utilized in the research of depression and anxiety [1].

N-Desmethyltrimipramine is a biochemical.
