> I saw a study that seemed to show that low dose tca's were more effective than ssris for mild to moderate depression. I guess using tca's this way would be novel and the side effects would be tolerable. So this puts another option on the table.
Do you recall the details of the study?
Prescribing practices have always been to use lower dosages of TCAs for outpatients and higher dosages for inpatients.
