Title: Ethipramine
Post by Wayne on Oct 6^th, 2009 at 6:48am

Hello All, had a chat with a doctor who claims she had successfully treated another cluster-head with Ethipramine. I am somewhat sceptical, anyone ever come across this??

I'm thinking that Doc is about 50 years behind the times.

I was Rxed Tofranil 30 years ago when Docs never heard of CH. Had no effect what so ever.

Hadn't heard of ethipramine before. Apparently, it's an antidepressant/mood elevator. Not sold in the US.

Couldn't find any information on ethipramine in the treatment of CH.

Best,

George

Thanks George, thats all I could find, doesn't sound particularly promising.
