anyone success for adhd with low doses of TCAs ?

Posted by francesco on February 17, 2004, at 4:57:12

I have immediate relief from my ADHD syntoms from low doses of Anafranil (25mg). I would be curious to know if there is someone who manages to stay on low doses of TCAs for ADHD-syntoms or if everybody ends up in taking the antidepressant dosage. I'm not depressed, not anxious, and antidepressants usually make depressed (Anafranil included).
Thanks

I always raised my dosage of TCA because I was depressed. If 25 mg Anafranil is helping and you're not depressed, why raise it? It sounds almost like a 'maintainance dose.'
