desipramine and Chronic Illness

desipramine has been researched along with Chronic Illness in 30 studies

Desipramine: A tricyclic dibenzazepine compound that potentiates neurotransmission. Desipramine selectively blocks reuptake of norepinephrine from the neural synapse, and also appears to impair serotonin transport. This compound also possesses minor anticholinergic activity, through its affinity to muscarinic receptors.
desipramine : A dibenzoazepine consisting of 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[b,f]azepine substituted on nitrogen with a 3-(methylamino)propyl group.

"Doxepin and desipramine at final doses of 188 and 173 mg/day, respectively, were compared in 36 volunteers with major affective or dysthymic disorder and chronic back pain."9.05Antidepressants in concomitant chronic back pain and depression: doxepin and desipramine compared. ( Benedetti, C; Bokan, JA; Butler, S; Phillips, M; Spengler, D; Ward, N, 1984)
"This single-center, 12-week, double-blind, prospective, controlled-concentration study randomized 121 chronic back pain patients without major depression to active placebo (benztropine mesylate) or to predetermined low, medium, or high concentrations of desipramine (targets were 50, 110, and 150 ng/mL, respectively) or fluoxetine (targets were 100, 200, and 400 ng/mL, respectively)."5.12Efficacy of noradrenergic and serotonergic antidepressants in chronic back pain: a preliminary concentration-controlled trial. ( Abramson, I; Atkinson, JH; Capparelli, EV; Garfin, SR; Matthews, SC; Slater, MA; Wallace, MS; Zisook, S, 2007)

( Benedetti, C; Bokan, JA; Butler, S; Phillips, M; Spengler, D; Ward, N, 1984)
" The degree of anorexia and plasma corticosterone elevation in response to the stress was measured."3.67The effect of acute and chronic administration of desmethylimipramine on responses to stress in rats. ( Platt, JE; Stone, EA; Trullas, R, 1984)
"Desipramine has an antiarrhythmic effect in patients with chronic ventricular ectopy, but its clinical utility is limited by adverse effects."2.66Antiarrhythmic efficacy of desipramine. ( Bressler, R; Fenster, PE; Kipps, J, 1989)
"CD-1 mice were dosed with Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) and measures of body weight, locomotor activity, and immobility in the tail suspension test (TST) were made."1.39A depressive phenotype induced by Bacille Calmette Guérin in 'susceptible' animals: sensitivity to antidepressants. ( Clark, JA; Klee, N; Nizami, M; Platt, B; Schulenberg, J, 2013)
" Unpredictable chronic mild stress induced a degradation of coat state and decreased grooming behaviour in the splash test, which was reversed by the chronic administration of tramadol (20 mg/kg) and desipramine (10 mg/kg)."1.34Antidepressant-like effect of tramadol in the unpredictable chronic mild stress procedure: possible involvement of the noradrenergic system. ( Aksu, F; Belzung, C; Bodard, S; Chalon, S; Yalcin, I, 2007)
" In this study, we examined the interaction between prolonged exposure to either repeated restraint stress or chronic mild stress with the chronic administration of the antidepressant desipramine on two spontaneous behaviours, in which an involvement of the mesolimbic dopamine system has been suggested: novelty-induced exploratory activity and grooming."1.31Exploratory behaviour and grooming after repeated restraint and chronic mild stress: effect of desipramine. ( Carboni, V; D'Aquila, PS; Peana, AT; Serra, G, 2000)
"If sinusitis is not found to be present, the otolaryngologist must help the patient understand this point, reassure him or her that the otolaryngologist will still be vigilant for the development of sinusitis, and refocus the history and workup for some other cause of the recurrent and persistent paranasal pain."1.29Treatment of chronic paranasal sinus pain with minimal sinus disease. ( Acquadro, MA; Montgomery, WW, 1996)
"The literature is devoid of reports indicating that a reduction in the dosage or discontinuation of antidepressants of any chemical class produces symptoms of major depression within 2-4 d."1.28Symptoms of major depression: acute effect of withdrawing antidepressants. ( Del Medico, VJ; Dilsaver, SC; Halle, MH, 1991)
