The authors describe 2 cases in which withdrawal symptoms occurred during the course of imipramine therapy, after the patients had failed to take a single daily dose of medication. They note that similar withdrawal symptoms have been noted upon discontinuation of imipramine and its derivatives desipramine and chlorimipramine, but have not--with one exception--been reported in association with other tricyclics.
