Lofepramine

A tricyclic antidepressant of the dibenzazepine family, first described in the scientific literature in 1969, patented in 1970 and introduced in the early 1980s for the treatment of depression. This family brings together the active ingredient.

Did you know?Instead of the methyl group of the other tricyclics it carries a bulky 4-chlorobenzoylmethyl group on its nitrogen: in the body this is cleaved off, releasing another antidepressant, desipramine.
