Clomipramine is a potent inhibitor of serotonin re-uptake in the brain. Significant antagonism at cholinergic and ?1-receptors. Weak antagonism at dopamine receptors. It has also antidepressant, sedative and anticholinergic effects.
Barbiturates increase metabolism of tricyclic antidepressants; conversely cimetidine, guanethidine, haloperidol and phenothiazines block the tricyclic metabolism. CNS effects of alcohol enhanced. Potentially Fatal: If clomipramine is to be substituted for MAOIs, at least 3 wk should elapse after discontinuing MAOIs. Risk of hypertension and arrhythmias if co-administered with adrenaline and noradrenaline.
