Elle est utilisée dans le traitement de la dépression, surtout lorsqu'elle s'accompagne d'anxiété.
It is desirable to monitor TCA plasma levels whenever a TCA is going to be coadministered with another drug known to be an inhibitor of P450 2D6.Doxepin is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6 (with CYP1A2 & CYP3A4 as minor pathways) inhibitors or substrates of CYP2D6 (i.e., quinidine, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors [SSRIs]) may increase the plasma concentration of Doxepin when administered concomitantly.
It is a white crystalline solid readily soluble in water, lower alcohols and chloroform. 0000004562 00000 n Max: 6 mg/day PO. The usual optimum dose range is 75 mg/day to 150 mg/day.In more severely ill patients higher doses may be required with subsequent gradual increase to 300 mg/day if necessary. Characteristic of this type of compound, Doxepin has not been demonstrated to produce the physical tolerance or psychological dependence associated with addictive compounds.1.
A pH > 7.60 or a pCOIn rare instances, hemoperfusion may be beneficial in acute refractory cardiovascular instability in patients with acute toxicity.

In animal studies anticholinergic, antiserotonin and antihistamine effects on smooth muscle have been demonstrated. Additionally, higher than expected tricyclic antidepressant levels have been observed when they are begun in patients already taking cimetidine.

Short-term studies did not show an increase in the risk of suicidality with antidepressants compared to placebo in adults beyond age 24; there was a reduction with antidepressants compared to placebo in adults aged 65 and older.The pooled analyses of placebo-controlled trials in children and adolescents with MDD, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), or other psychiatric disorders included a total of 24 short-term trials of nine antidepressant drugs in over 4,400 patients.
