	Doxepin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Doxepin is a tricyclic antidepressant, known under many brand-names such as Aponal®, the original preparation by Boehringer-Ingelheim, now part of the Roche group; Adapine®, Sinquan® and Sinequan® (Pfizer Inc.); and Zonalon®, a cream-based preparation.
		Doxepin inhibits the reuptake of serotonin and noradrenaline from the synaptic cleft (dual action).
		Doxepin has an extremely low potential for abuse and psychological dependence (mostly noted with polytoxicomaniacs, possibly due to the strong anxiolytic action of Doxepin).

		I never had any increase in manic type symptoms with doxepin and I was using 300 mg a day when i finally got off of it.
		I think most of the time doxepin is supposed to be one of the better ones for people with a bit of a manic predisposition, since the newer prozac type drugs can seriously aggravate those symptoms.
