troop111 Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Hi everyone!I'm not sure if this is the right spot for this, but it has to do with bipolar rapid cycling that's induced by anti-depressants.I'm seeing a new pdoc, and he's thinking of putting me on Tofranil (Imipramine), I suppose in place of the Prozac I take. I take the Prozac for my OCD and panic disorders, but he thinks it's responsible for my super rapid cycling: One major mood shift a week (into depression), and sometimes multiple mood shifts a day. I really don't know what he's thinking, but he told me to research Imipramine and see what I thought.In addition to the Prozac, I'm also taking Lamictal, Valium, and Atarax.Do any of you have any experience with Imipramine? I've been researching it, and I saw a reference to it sometimes being used for treatment-resistant depression.Your input would be greatly appreciated!Thanks troop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crtclms Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Since imipramine is a tricyclic, I'm moving this to anti-depressants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
