Imipramine

The first tricyclic antidepressant: in 1957 the Swiss psychiatrist Roland Kuhn described its effect on the mood of depressed patients, opening the era of modern antidepressant medicines. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, metabolites, labelled standards and other impurities.

Did you know?It was first tried as a possible antipsychotic, because it resembled chlorpromazine: it did not calm psychotic patients, but Kuhn noticed that it lifted the mood of depressed ones.
