Aventyl

(Pamelor, Nortriptyline)

Aventyl is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA). TCA agents are predominantly serotonin and/or norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors.

Tricyclic Antidepressants were discovered in the 1950s amid the birth of psychopharmacology, but not released for another decade.  They are named for their chemical structure that contains three rings of atoms.

TCAs inhibit the reabsorption (reuptake) of Serotonin and Norepinephrine, and to a lesser extent Dopamine. This process increases the levels of neurotransmitters in the brain. Tricyclics also block transmission at cholinergic synapses, causing an anticholinergic effect, and accounts for the many side effects. This countering of Acetycholine can cause weak muscles, memory loss, constipation, dizziness, dry mouth, blurred vision and a slowing of urination.

Tricyclics can be dangerous when combined with other drugs. Abnormal heart rhythms can occur when combined with other Tetracyclics or Tetracyclics. Tricyclics can increase 2 to 10 fold when co-administered with an SSRI (the SSRI can also increase) and increase cardiac issues. The combination with Bupropion can increase the risk of seizures. Combining with MAO Inhibitors can increase the risk of Serotonin Syndrome (potentially fatal), low blood pressure or hypertensive reaction. Concurrent administration with insulin can cause a greater than expected drop in blood sugar.
