amitriptyline and Seizures

amitriptyline has been researched along with Seizures in 67 studies

Amitriptyline: Tricyclic antidepressant with anticholinergic and sedative properties. It appears to prevent the re-uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin at nerve terminals, thus potentiating the action of these neurotransmitters. Amitriptyline also appears to antagonize cholinergic and alpha-1 adrenergic responses to bioactive amines.
amitriptyline : An organic tricyclic compound that is 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d][7]annulene substituted by a 3-(dimethylamino)propylidene group at position 5.

Seizures: Clinical or subclinical disturbances of cortical function due to a sudden, abnormal, excessive, and disorganized discharge of brain cells. Clinical manifestations include abnormal motor, sensory and psychic phenomena. Recurrent seizures are usually referred to as EPILEPSY or seizure disorder.

" The relative safety of different antidepressants has been assessed by looking at answers to the questions: how safe is the drug in overdose; how dangerous are its side effects at therapeutic dose; and does it have any dangerous interactions with other drugs or substances? Based on current data it can be said with reasonable confidence that fluvoxamine, fluoxetine, paroxetine and moclobemide are "safe" antidepressants, and mianserin and trazodone are also "safe" but to a lesser extent (mainly because of hypnosedation)."2.39Safety of antidepressants.
