nortriptyline has been researched along with Panic Attacks in 14 studies

Nortriptyline: A metabolite of AMITRIPTYLINE that is also used as an antidepressive agent. Nortriptyline is used in major depression, dysthymia, and atypical depressions.
nortriptyline : An organic tricyclic compound that is 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d][7]annulene substituted by a 3-(methylamino)propylidene group at position 5. It is an active metabolite of amitriptyline.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The goal of the study was to describe with prospective methodology the therapeutic response to nortriptyline in the respiratory panic disorder (PD) subtype versus the non-respiratory subtype."7.72Respiratory panic disorder subtype: acute and long-term response to nortriptyline, a noradrenergic tricyclic antidepressant. ( Lopes, FL; Mezzasalma, MA; Nardi, AE; Nascimento, I; Valença, AM; Versiani, M; Zin, WA, 2003)
" In this study, we evaluated the effects of two antidepressants, nortriptyline (n=13), a tricyclic, and paroxetine (n=16), an SRI inhibitor, on HR variability in patients with panic disorder, using a measure of chaos, the largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE) using pre- and posttreatment HR time series."7.72Effect of nortriptyline and paroxetine on measures of chaos of heart rate time series in patients with panic disorder. ( Rao, R; Yeragani, VK, 2003)
"This study investigated beat-to-beat QT variability in patients with panic disorder before and after treatment with nortriptyline (n = 13) and paroxetine (n = 16), using an automated algorithm to compute QT intervals."7.70Effects of nortriptyline and paroxetine on QT variability in patients with panic disorder. ( Balon, R; Jampala, VC; Pohl, R; Ramesh, C; Srinivasan, K; Yeragani, VK, 2000)
"We selected 57 panic disorder (PD) subjects (DSM-IV) and rated them with the Panic Disorder Severity Scale (PDSS) at baseline and after 30 days of treatment with nortriptyline, and with the Eysenck Personality Inventory and the Brown Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) Scale at baseline."3.73Diurnal panic attacks with and without nocturnal panic attacks: are there some phenomenological differences? ( Freire, RC; Lopes, FL; Mezzasalma, MA; Nardi, AE; Nascimento, I; Valença, AM; Zin, WA, 2005)
