MedKoo Cat#: 591139 | Name: Amitriptyline

Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Amitriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant with anticholinergic and sedative properties. It appears to prevent the re-uptake of norepinephrine and serotonin at nerve terminals, thus potentiating the action of these neurotransmitters. Amitriptyline also appears to antagonize cholinergic and alpha-1 adrenergic responses to bioactive amines.
