Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCRIPTION Imipramine hydrochloride is an orally active tertiary amine tricyclic antidepressant. Imipramine hydrochloride is a Fascin1 inhibitor with antitumor activities. Imipramine hydrochloride also inhibits serotonin transporter with an IC50 value of 32 nM. Imipramine hydrochloride stimulates U-87MG glioma cells autophagy and induces HL-60 cell apoptosis. Imipramine hydrochloride shows neuroprotective and immunomodulatory effects[1][2][3][4][5].

INDICATION For the relief of symptoms of depression and as temporary adjunctive therapy in reducing enuresis in children aged 6 years and older [FDA Label]. ; ; May also be used off-label to manage panic disorders with or without agoraphobia, as a second line agent for ADHD in children and adolescents, to manage bulimia nervosa, for short-term management of acute depressive episodes in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia, for the treatment of acute stress disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder, and for symptomatic treatment of postherpetic neuralgia and painful diabetic neuropathy [L1349,L1348,A31900,L1351,L1352,L1353,A31904].
TOXICITY The anticholinergic actvity of imipramine can produce dry mucous membranes, blurred vision, increased intraocular pressure, hyperthermia, constipation, adynamic ileus, urinary retention, delayed micturition, and dilation of the urinary tract [L1360].; ; Central nervous system and neuromuscular effects include drowsiness, lethargy, fatigue, agitation, excitement, nightmares, restlessness, insomnia, confusion, disturbed concentration, disorientation, delusions, and hallucinations.; ; Effects on the GI tract include anorexia, nausea and vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal cramps, increases in pancreatic enzymes, epigastric distress, stomatitis, peculiar taste, and black tongue.; ; Rarely agranulocytosis, thrombocytopenia, eosinophilia, leukopenia, and purpura have occured.; ; Infants whose mothers were receiving tricyclic antidepressants prior to delivery have experienced cardiac problems, irritability, respiratory distress, muscle spasms, seizures, and urinary retention.; ; Serotonin syndrome can occur when used in conjunction with other pro-serotonergic drugs.; ; ### LD50 Values; Rat; - Oral 250 mg/kg; - Intraperitoneal 79mg/kg; - Subcutaneous 250 mg/kg; - Intravenous 15.9 mg/kg; ; Mouse ; - Oral 188 mg/kg; - Intraperitoneal 51.6 mg/kg; - Subcutaneous 195 μg/kg; - Intravenous 21 mg/kg; ; Human range of toxicity is considered to include single dosages greater than 5 mg/kg.
METABOLISM Imipramine is nearly exclusively metabolized by the liver [A31907]. Imipramine is converted to desipramine by CYP1A2, CYP3A4, CYP2C19. Both imipramine and desipramine are hydroxylated by CYP2D6 [A31915]. Desipramine is an active metabolite.; ; Minor metabolic pathways include dealkylation to form an imidodibenzyl product as well as demethylation of desipramine to didemethylimipramine and subsequent hydroxylation [A31907].; ; Less than 5% of orally administered imipramine is excreted unchanged.
DESCRIPTION Imipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA). (GtoPdb)
PHARMACODYNAMICS Imipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant with general pharmacological properties similar to those of structurally related tricyclic antidepressant drugs such as amitriptyline and doxepin. While it acts to block both, imipramine displays a much higher affinity for the serotonin reuptake transporter than for the norepinephrine reuptake transporter [A6584]. Imipramine produces effects similar to other monoamine targeting antidepressants, increasing serotonin- and norepinephrine-based neurotransmission.; ; This modulation of neurotransmission produces a complex range of changes in brain structure and function along with an improvement in depressive symptoms. The changes include increases in hippocampal neurogenesis and reduced downregulation of this neurogenesis in response to stress [A31931]. These implicate brain derived neurotrophic factor signalling as a necessary contributor to antidepressant effect although the link to the direct increase in monoamine neurotransmission is unclear.; ; Serotonin reuptake targeting agents may also produce a down-regulation in β-adrenergic receptors in the brain [A31938].

DESCRIPTION Tricyclic antidepressant; blocks reuptake of serotonin and norepinephrine (LOPAC library)
DESCRIPTION Imipramine hydrochloride acts as an inhibitor of serotonin and norepinephrine transporters, also is an antagonist at histamine, muscarinic acetylcholine, and alpha-1-adrenergic receptors. Imipramine is a first generation tricyclic antidepressant. (Enamine Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION Imipramine hydrochloride (Imipramine HCl) is a first generation tricyclic antidepressant that acts primarily as an inhibitor of serotonin and norepinephrine transporters (Kds = 1.4 and 37 nM, respectively).Imipramine hydrochloride is reported to prevent the translocation of aSMase, inhibiting MV and exosomes secretion (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
DESCRIPTION Imipramine (Dimipressin) is an orally active Fascin1 inhibitor with antidepressant and antitumor activity.Imipramine inhibits the 5-hydroxytryptamine transporter (IC50: 32 nM), induces apoptosis, and induces autophagy in U-87MG glioma cells.Imipramine has neuroprotective and immunomodulatory activities, inhibits TNT, and is used to label brain blood vessels.Imipramine is a neuroprotective and immunomodulatory compound. Imipramine has neuroprotective and immunomodulatory activities, inhibits invasion and migration of TNBC cells, and can be used to study breast cancer and epilepsy.
