SummaryPart I of this paper presents a comprehensive review of plasma level monitoring of tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and their relationship to clinical response to antidepressant therapy. Imipramine, nortriptyline, amitriptyline, clomipramine and desipramine are the most widely studied TCAs in this regard. Typical therapeutic plasma concentration ranges are suggested for some of these agents, although a consensus is lacking.

A case of altered kinetics of amitriptyline in a patient with porto-caval anastomosis and liver cirrhosis who showed an unusually strong sedative response to the drug, is presented. Therapy with tricyclic antidepressants should be initiated with lower doses and adjusted by plasma level monitoring inpatients with liver by-pass.
