Case Example A 37-year-old schizoaffective patient was treated with thioridazine (100 mg by mouth q.i.d.), phenytoin (100 mg by mouth q.i.d.), and amitriptyline (50 mg by mouth q.i.d.). The patient had been stabilized on this regimen for several weeks, but then complained of daytime sedation. The treating physician therefore combined all three into a single bedtime regimen. The patient expired the first night of the new schedule from an acute cardiac arrest. 

Tricyclic antidepressants, like some of the phenothiazine derivatives (e.g., thioridazine), have an anticholinergic property. Amitriptyline is the strongest in this regard, and desipramine is the weakest.

Berger and Wilson also reported the separation of 10 antidepressants (amitriptyline, imipramine, nortriptyline, desipramine, protripyline, bucliz-ine, benactyzine, hydroxyzine, perphenazine, and thioridazine) using a packed-column SFC with a tertiary mobile phase [37], A Lichrosphere cyanopropyl column with a mobile phase consisting of supercritical fluid carbon dioxide with 10% modifier (methanol with 0.5% isopropylamine) was used for the separation. It was noted that solutes did not elute without the addition of isopropylamine. Detection limits obtained were as low as 88 ppb for a 5-jul injection. 

Of the systemic antihistamines, the ethanolamines, including diphenhydramine, have significant antimuscarinic activity. In addition, the antipsychotic agents, particularly the phenothiazines such as thioridazine (Mellaril), have well-dociunented anticholinergic properties. Therapeutic doses of tricyclic antidepressants, like amitriptyline hydrochloride (Elavil) and imipramine (Tofranil), produce significant anticholinergic actions and thus have the potential for ocular side effects.

Drug-Drug and Drug-Food Interactions. Since cinacalcet is metabolized by multiple hepatic enzymes there is potential for drug interactions. Cinacalcet is also a potent inhibitor of the enzyme CYP2D6. As a result, dose adjustments of concomitant medications that are predominantly metabolized by this enzyme and have a narrow therapeutic index such as flecainide, thioridazine, vinblastine, and most tricyclic antidepressants (i.e., amitriptyline) may be required. ... 

Tricyclic antidepressants, like some of the phenothiazine derivatives, are sedative in nature. Those compounds containing tertiary amines (imipramine, amitriptyline, and doxepin) are the most sedative. Those compounds containing a secondary amine (nortriptyline and desipramine) are less so, and protriptyline has no sedative effect (see Table 5). Tricyclic antidepressants, like some of the phenothiazine derivatives (e.g., thioridazine), have an anticholinergic property. Amitriptyline is the strongest in this regard, and desipramine is the weakest (see Tables 5 through 7).
