A comparison of maprotiline (Ludiomil) and amitriptyline (1)

Abstract

The study described here was designed to see if it was possible to show an earlier onset of action for maprotiline (Ludiomil) compared with amitriptyline while at the same time demonstrating equal long-term effectiveness and certainly no greater side-effects. A between-patient double-blind trial with 40 patients supported these aims and was statistically significant (p less than 0.001) with regard to early onset of antidepressant effect.
