In children and adolescents, there is not sufficient evidence of safety and efficacy of clomipramine in the treatment of depressive states, phobias and cataplexy associated with narcolepsy. The use of clomipramine in children and adolescents years of age in these indications is therefore not recommended see section 4.
Long-term safety and effectiveness have been established for use of clomipramine in pediatric patients 10 to 17 years old for the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder OCD. There are limited data on the use of clomipramine in pediatric patients for other indications. Clomipramine is not indicated for the treatment of major depressive disorder MDD in pediatric patients. The difference in absolute risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviors across different indications was highest in those with major depression. The need for an antidepressant in children, adolescents, or young adults for any use must be weighed against the risk of suicidality; it is unknown if this risk extends to long-term use. All patients should be monitored for symptom worsening or suicidality, especially at treatment initiation or after dose changes. A change to the treatment regimen or discontinuation of clomipramine may be necessary in patients with emerging suicidality or worsening depression.
Since little is known about the teratogenic effects of clomipramine used concurrently with caffeine during the organogenesis period, the aim of this study was to test the teratogenic effects of a coadministration of caffeine and clomipramine on rat fetuses. We divided 42 pregnant rats into seven groups, randomly. The first group control received 0. This study concludes that caffeine in high doses or the simultaneous administration of caffeine and clomipramine leads to teratogenicity. For decades, it was postulated that the placenta acts as a barrier that defends the fetus from the adverse effects of drugs. One of these drugs is clomipramine, a member of the tricyclic antidepressant group. This drug is prescribed for panic, depressive, and obsessive-compulsive disorders. Caffeine is a natural alkaloid compound found in coffee, tea, and cola drinks; it is metabolized by liver cytochrome P enzymes. It has been established that caffeine consumption by pregnant women can have adverse effects on the fetus and as clomipramine inhibits the metabolism of caffeine, it is possible that clomipramine may increase the teratogenicity of caffeine.

Clomipramine is a tricyclic antidepressant. It affects chemicals in the brain that may be unbalanced. Clomipramine is used to treat symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder OCD such as recurrent thoughts or feelings and repetitive actions. Do not use clomipramine if you have used an MAO inhibitor in the past 14 days, such as isocarboxazid, linezolid, methylene blue injection, phenelzine, rasagiline, selegiline, or tranylcypromine. Some young people have thoughts about suicide when first taking an antidepressant. Stay alert to changes in your mood or symptoms.
Keep your regular appointments with your doctor. This is so your doctor can check on your progress. This medicine may make you feel sleepy. If this happens, do not drive and do not use tools or machines. It helps ease the symptoms of a number of different conditions. Depression: the exact cause of depression is not known.
The mechanism of action of the drugs effective in treating OCD clomipramine, a non-selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor, and the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors: citalopram, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, sertraline and paroxetine has given rise to the hypothesis that deficient serotonin function is a key element in the pathophysiology of OCD. These drugs block serotonin reuptake by the pre-synaptic neuron, thereby increasing serotonin availability at post-synaptic receptors. Pharmacological Treatments. Direct, controlled comparison studies have found fluvoxamine, paroxetine and sertraline equal in efficacy to clomipramine, the first drug that was demonstrated to be effective in treating OCD. Koran's clinical practice is to push the patient in weekly increments to the maximum easily tolerated SSRI or clomipramine dose, since it is not possible to predict the dose that will prove effective for an individual patient.
Anafranil has been around the longest and is the best studied throughout the world, but there is growing evidence that the other drugs are as effective. Researchers do not know how the drugs work, and that is why this is all so confusing. The SSRIs also commonly cause nausea, inability to sit still, sleepiness in some individuals, insomnia in others, and a heightened sense of energy. The tricyclic Anafranil may cause pronounced effects like drowsiness, dry mouth, racing heart, memory problems, concentration difficulties, and problems with urination mostly in men. Sometimes weight gain is a problem and a strict diet may be needed if appetite is increased.
Common side effects include dry mouth, constipation, loss of appetite, sleepiness, weight gain, sexual dysfunction, and trouble urinating. In a meta-analysis of various trials involving fluoxetine Prozac, fluvoxamine Luvox, and sertraline Zoloft to test their relative efficacies in treating OCD, clomipramine was found to be the most effective.
Children and adolescents, however, tolerate poorly the adverse effects of tricyclics. Fluoxetine and other serotonin re-uptake inhibitors also appear useful in OCD, and are safer than clomipramine.
They are used to treat depression, anxiety, and certain types of nerve pain. There is a separate bump leaflet on Use of amitriptyline in pregnancy.
Amitriptyline, clomipramine, and maprotiline attenuate the inflammatory response by inhibiting neutrophil migration and mast cell degranulation. Despite the recognized anti-inflammatory potential of heterocyclic antidepressants, the mechanisms concerning their modulating anafranil 40 mg are not completely known. Thus, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory effect of amitriptyline, clomipramine, and maprotiline and the possible modulating properties of these drugs on neutrophil migration and mast cell degranulation. The hind paw edema and air-pouch models of inflammation were used. All tested antidepressants prevented both carrageenan- and dextran-induced edema. These results suggest an important anti-inflammatory role of heterocyclic antidepressants, which is dependent on the modulation of neutrophil migration and mast cell stabilization.
It has also been used to modify owner-directed dominance aggression in dogs. Clomipramine is also used in cats for urine spraying. Behavioral disorders in dogs and cats are a common reason for veterinary visits. Unacceptable or dangerous animal behavior problems may lead some owners to elect euthanasia as an ultimate solution to the problems they face with their pets. Recently, veterinarians have placed greater emphasis on proper training and behavior modification practices, and specialists working in the field of animal behavior have increasingly adopted drugs used in human behavior for animal use.
