  • Title: Profound behavioral toxicity due to tricyclic antidepressants.
    Author: Meador-Woodruff JH, Grunhaus L.
    Journal: J Nerv Ment Dis; 1986 Oct; 174(10):628-30. PubMed ID: 3760855.
    Abstract:
    The incidence of tricyclic antidepressant-induced behavioral toxicity appears to be fairly high in elderly patients but has rarely been reported in the young. We present a case of significant behavioral side effects in a young woman secondary to elevated plasma levels of imipramine and desipramine, masquerading as an agitated psychotic depression.
