Propazepine is a tricyclic antidepressant (TCA).^[1] Propazepine is sometimes confused with imipramine, which has the central ring nitrogen in a different location.^[1] Prazepine is the International nonproprietary name of this compound.^[2] Prazepine is also reported to be one of the many synonyms of imipramine.^[3] Propazepine can be synthesized chemically.^[4]^[5] Propazepine appears to never have actually been used as a tricyclic antidepressant outside of initial medical tests;^{[citation needed]} therefore, there is little information about it.
