Abstract:
:1. Twenty-two patients hospitalized for treatment of depression were treated under conditions simulating those of home treatment. 2. Full doses of nortriptyline, from 100 to 150 mg/day, were started after baseline observations were made. 3. Two patients were dropped from the study, one for orthostatic hypotension, one for an aberrant response to nortriptyline. Two additional patients developed orthostasis which was easily managed. Otherwise no unusual side effects were noted. 4. After six days of treatment, 9 of 20 patients showed significant improvement with an overall reduction in scores on the Hamilton Depression Scale of 49% for the entire group. 5. Using the weight-adjusted dosage schedule, 18 of the 21 patients attained plasma concentrations of nortriptyline within the presumed therapeutic range; however, no clear relationship could be established between plasma concentrations and clinical response. 6. With proper selection of patients, it should be possible to treat at home some patients who currently are considered to require hospitalization.
