Napactadine is a bicyclic antidepressant agent. It is a histamine-H1 receptor antagonist. Preliminary results indicated a marked improvement in depressive symptomalology within 7 days of treatment, as measured by the Hamilton depression scale. However, clinical studies were discontinued after chronic administration of napactadine because an elevation in liver enzyme levels was observed in some patients.
