Sources...a couple of textbooks, some articles, knowledge aquired in classes, you know. Stuff. :-)
CBZ is a fascinating drug. It has the same iminodibenzyl core structure as imipramine but does not share the effects that are common to the tricyclic ADs. Its pharmacokinetic properties are just as complicated as its pharmacodynamic ones.
(Turnover just refers to the utilisation and synthesis (replacement) of the neurotransmitter.)
