  • Episode 7: Neuroreceptors
    2024/10/12
    Taking a short break from the antidepressants to talk about all of the receptors in the brain (and some outside) that I think about when I'm thinking about psychiatric medications. The next podcast is about tricyclic antidepressants and I think this is a good time to introduce this concept. The tricyclics have complicated interactions with these receptors as do the antipsychotics that we will talk about later, but most psychiatric medications do what they do through a variety of combinations and strengths at these receptors to include the MAOis that we talked about in the last episode. Let's learn more about them!

  • Episode 8: Tricyclic Antidepressants
    2024/10/12
    Now that we better understand the neuroreceptors in our brains, let's tackle the tricyclic antidepressants. These used to be a mainstay of psychiatric medication treatment for depression. Not so anymore as we have safer medications that have WAY less adverse effects, but they're still used; not as much for depression but for their other effects like with chronic pain, poor sleep, and more. I'd wager primary care uses them more than psychiatrists. They can help but they sure can hurt as well. Let's find out more about them!
