Popis: |
Performance on a verbal memory task and affective state were assessed in geriatric major depressives before and during 6 weeks of treatment with nortriptyline (NT) in a fixed-dose design study. Higher plasma NT concentration was associated with poorer free recall but better affective outcome. In contrast, higher plasma Z-10-hydroxynortriptyline (Z-10-OH-NT) concentration was associated with more efficient free recall. Concentration-effect relationships were noted in patients later classified as cognitively unimpaired using the Dementia Rating Scale after optimal treatment, rather than in those with residual cognitive impairment. |
