desipramine and Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

desipramine has been researched along with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder in 39 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.

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: An anxiety disorder characterized by recurrent, persistent obsessions or compulsions. Obsessions are the intrusive ideas, thoughts, or images that are experienced as senseless or repugnant. Compulsions are repetitive and seemingly purposeful behavior which the individual generally recognizes as senseless and from which the individual does not derive pleasure although it may provide a release from tension.

Trial Outcomes

NIMH Trichotillomania Symptom Severity Scale (NIMH-TSS)

The entire study lasts 10 weeks. Every two weeks subjects will take the NIMH-TSS. The change in scores from baseline to after 10 weeks will be assessed. The scale itself assesses severity of trichotillomania symptoms. The NIMH-TSS score ranges from 0 to 20, with 0 being no symptoms and 20 being the most severe. (NCT03530800)
Timeframe: Assessed every two weeks up to 10 weeks, baseline data reported

Skin Picking Symptom Assessment Scale (SP-SAS)

The entire study lasts 10 weeks. Every two weeks subjects will take the SP-SAS. The change in scores from baseline to after 10 weeks will be assessed. The scale itself assesses severity of skin-picking symptoms. The SP-SAS score ranges from 0 to 48, with 0 being no symptoms and 48 being the most severe. (NCT03530800)
